Issue #4482 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Status changed from Needs design decision to Duplicate

I know your bug was in first, but I'm duping this to #4976, as it's a more 
general solution.

I don't believe "force" is the correct default, but it's something you'll be 
able to specify when that bug is resolved.

Bug #4482: puppet uses wrong options to apt-get - install of previous version 
doesn't work
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4482

Author: Klavs Klavsen
Status: Duplicate
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Nigel Kersten
Category: package
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: 
Branch: 


if you try to ensure a previous version of a package, using apt-get as the 
provider (instead of aptitude which works) - puppet fails (it did with 0.24.8 - 
I'll confirm with 0.25.x just to be sure).

Puppet needs to call apt-get like this for this to work:
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y --force-yes ...
