Issue #2068 has been updated by immerda.
in my opinion this is the expected behavior, not?
You either want to ensure this version or not. If your described behavior is
really wished, then ensure could look like:
<pre>
package{'something':
ensure => '>=1.0',
}
</pre>
However this would have to be implemented and I see many problems coming, due
to all the different versioning schemes... :/

Bug #2068: Specifying version in package resource causes Gentoo systems to
downgrade to that version
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2068
Author: harisekhon
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Urgent
Assigned to:
Category: package
Target version:
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.24.7
Keywords:
package { "something":
ensure => "1.0"
}
causes Gentoo systems to try to emerge =something-1.0 instead of just ensure
that the version is at least 1.0, so if you have 1.5 installed, you go back
down to 1.0.
This is bad and can completely destabilize your system or cause other problem.
