Feature #4074: Package/source should accept puppet:// files

Sometimes you need to use backported packages on debian-like system (we could
easily imagine use cases for other platforms). In work/production environments,
it's quite rare to have directly access to the Internet for security reasons.
So "package" type should accept a "source" located on the puppet master
filebucket, whereas it only accepts local packages for the moment.
Said differently, I'd like to turn this kind of awful recipe : <pre>
class apache2-passenger {
package {"libapache2-mod-passenger":
ensure => installed,
provider => dpkg,
source => "/tmp/mod-passenger.deb"
require => File[tmp-passenger]
}
file {"tmp-passenger":
name => "/tmp/mod-passenger.deb",
owner => root,
group => root,
source =>
"puppet:///files/redmine/libapache2-mod-passenger_2.2.11debian-1~bpo50+1_i386.deb"
}
}
</pre>
Into something like this : <pre>
class apache2-passenger {
package {"libapache2-mod-passenger":
ensure => installed,
provider => dpkg,
source =>
"puppet:///files/passenger/libapache2-mod-passenger_2.2.11debian-1~bpo50+1_i386.deb"
}
}
</pre>
Let me know your opinion about that. Thanks!
