[Christopher Wood (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Christopher Wood created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6518 puppet resource package kernel reports the wrong rpm version Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.4.2 Assignee: Kylo Ginsberg Components: Types and Providers Created: 2016/07/18 7:45 AM Environment: [root@mail10c2 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.8 (Final) [root@mail10c2 ~]# uname -r 2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.x86_64 Priority: Minor Reporter: Christopher Wood Here's an oddity I just found while doodling around with kernel version audits. It looks like 'puppet resource package kernel' hasn't figured out that I have a later version of the rpm than it reports. Before a reboot: [root@mail10c2 puppet]# rpm -qa | grep ^kernel-2 kernel-2.6.32-642.1.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64 [root@mail10c2 puppet]# uname -r 2.6.32-642.1.1.el6.x86_64 [root@mail10c2 puppet]# puppet resource package kernel package { 'kernel': ensure => '2.6.32-642.1.1.el6', } After a reboot on that host: [root@mail10c2 ~]# rpm -qa | grep ^kernel-2 kernel-2.6.32-642.1.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64 [root@mail10c2 ~]# uname -r 2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.x86_64 [root@mail10c2 ~]# puppet resource package kernel package { 'kernel': ensure => '2.6.32-642.1.1.el6', } I get a really odd result if I include as much of the kernel version as I can without getting a result of "purged": [root@mail10c2 ~]# puppet resource package kernel-2.6.32 package { 'kernel-2.6.32': ensure => '2.6.32-220.23.1.el6', } Before or after the reboot, puppet seems to be fine with the set of rpms present and doesn't try to update, which is the behaviour I expect given this set of rpms and what is in the yum repo.
