Issue #1643 has been updated by Maciej BliziƄski.

To add a bit more of complexity, apart from pkg-get, there's also pkgutil, in 
which I'd be more interested than in pkg-get. It understands the catalogs used 
by OpenCSW and Blastwave.

Bug #1643: package providers "sunfreeware" and "blastwave" inappropriate: 
should be pkgget
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/1643

Author: Philip Brown
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal

Target version: unplanned
Affected version: 0.24.4

I've noticed that you have two separate "package providers":
puppet/provider/package/sunfreeware.rb
puppet/provider/package/blastwave.rb

This doesnt make sense, since the actual package mechanism is "pkg-get", and is 
common to both of them.
Just as you provide a "dpkg" provider, it seems most appropriate that you 
should provide a "pkgget" provider.

Additionally, as the author of pkg-get, I take exception to the description in 
"blastwave.rb", describing it as "Blastwave's pkg-get".

It does not belong to blastwave. pkg-get belongs to me, specifically. 

Would you please remove both the sunfreeware.rb and blastwave.rb providers, and 
replace them with a generic "pkgget" or "pkg-get" provider file?

a sample version (untested) is provided.
