Issue #3111 has been updated by Lance Albertson.

Has there been any progress made in fixing this issue?

Its becoming a larger issue when external applications such as mcollective do a 
`require 'puppet'` and hit this issue. Unfortunately the ralsh fix I mentioned 
above doesn't fix it but if I add it to the mcollective package code, it works.

Bug #3111: Portage provider fails with ralsh
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3111

Author: Lance Albertson
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: Markus Roberts
Category: Gentoo
Target version: 0.25.6
Affected version: 0.25.3
Keywords: 
Branch: 


When calling 'ralsh package' on a Gentoo, it returns the following ruby error:

<pre>
# ralsh package
/usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/package/portage.rb:23:in 
`instances': uninitialized constant FileUtils (NameError)
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/type.rb:1006:in `instances'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/type.rb:1005:in `collect'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/type.rb:1005:in `instances'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application/ralsh.rb:113:in 
`main'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:226:in `send'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:226:in 
`run_command'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:217:in `run'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:306:in 
`exit_on_fail'
        from /usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:217:in `run'
        from /usr/bin/ralsh:89
</pre>

A quick easy fix is to add <pre>require 'fileutils'</pre> to portage.rb but I'm 
assuming that ralsh is making an assumpution that fileutils is loaded
