Issue #1465 has been updated by incase.

Just wanted to confirm that the latest rpm upgrade (released on 2009-01-20 by 
RedHat) does indeed fix the problem of not installing package of ArchitectureA 
if already installed in ArchitectureB.

This means that now only the part of updating all packages (in all installed 
architectures) of a given name with "ensure=>latest" is missing.

Bug #1465: Puppet mistakenly thinks openssl-devel.x86_64 is installed.
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1465

Author: garthrk
Status: Needs more information
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: community
Category: Red Hat
Target version: unplanned
Complexity: Unknown
Patch: None
Affected version: 0.24.7
Keywords: yum package


I'm requiring @openssl-devel.$architecture@, which resolves to 
@openssl-devel.x86...@. Puppet isn't installing it, so my application build is 
failing. 

@puppetd --test --debug@ shows it running @/bin/rpm -q openssl-devel.x86...@. 

<pre>
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/bin/rpm -q \
openssldevel.x86_64 --nosignature --nodigest --qf %{NAME} \
%|EPOCH?{%{EPOCH}}:{0}| %{VERSION} %{RELEASE} %{ARCH}
</pre>

(I've wrapped it, indicating line splits with @\@)

Pupppet doesn't go on to install anything new. Poking around a little, I see 
@rpm -q openssl-devel.x86_64@ return without error despite 
@openssl-devel.x86_64@ not appearing in the output of @yum list installed@: 

<pre>
# /bin/rpm -q openssl-devel.i386
openssl-devel-0.9.8b-10.el5
# echo $?
0

# /bin/rpm -q  openssl-devel-0.9.8b-10.el5
openssl-devel-0.9.8b-10.el5
# echo $?
0

# /bin/rpm -q openssl-devel.x86_64
# echo $?
0

# /bin/rpm -q openssl-devel.garbage
package openssl-devel.garbage is not installed
# echo $?
1

# yum list installed | grep openssl
openssl.i686                             0.9.8b-10.el5          installed
openssl.x86_64                           0.9.8b-10.el5          installed
openssl-devel.i386                       0.9.8b-10.el5          installed
</pre>

If I run 'yum install openssl-devel.x86_64",it offers to install it.

Is this ok [y/N]:
</pre>

I can temporarily work around this by manually installing 
@openssl-devel.x86_64@, of course, but that goes against the whole point of 
Puppet. 

I suspect Puppet could fix this by checking for output from @rpm -q@ as well as 
an exit code of @0...@. Hopefully, that won't break on other systems.
