Issue #887 has been updated by Luke Kanies.
Target version changed from Puppet - unplanned to Puppet - 0.25.2
This really shouldn't be that hard of a fix - just replace each call to pkgget
with 'withenv :PAGER => "/usr/bin/cat" { ... }'.
Or rather, alias the method to do exactly that.

Bug #887: Environment variable leak in blastwave provider
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/887
Author: Francois Deppierraz
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assigned to:
Category: exec
Target version: 0.25.2
Patch: None
Affected version: 0.25.1
Keywords:
Branch:
In provider/package/blastwave.rb:
<pre>
# This is so stupid, but then, so is blastwave.
ENV[[PAGER]] = "/usr/bin/cat"
</pre>
This environment variable leaks in all other types (such as exec). This could
lead to strange behaviours of script launched by an exec because under some OS
/usr/bin/cat does not exist.
This problem appeared during an automated Vmware Workstation installation, the
vmware-install.pl script failed when run with PAGER=/usr/bin/cat.
