Following a chat on IRC with Volcane :
mc-package uninstall package=DKT_yumconf_sandbox gives : error = Execution of
'/bin/rpm -e absent-absent-absent.absent' returned 1: error: package
absent-absent-absent.absent is not installed
ralsh package DKT_yumconf_sandbox gives : { 'DKT_yumconf_sandbox': ensure =>
'absent'}
Puppet is configured to ensure that the package is remove, but, on this host,
it isn't :
rpm -qa --queryformat='%{NAME}\n'|grep yumconf
returns : DKT_yumconf_sandbox
On the puppet master : package { 'DKT_yumconf_sandbox': ensure => '4.0-6'}
The puppet master node also fails to uninstall it, with the same error (and it
is also configured to ensure that this package is absent)
Volcane's suggested editing package.rb agent and change line 112 to
reply[:output] = pkg.uninstall unless pkg.properties[:ensure] == :absent
After restarting mcollectived, i still have the issue.
After some more tests on some other nodes and package, i had this issue twice
when removing another package on one other node (the removal succeeded on 27
other nodes. Eventually, it succeeded after trying to remove it 3 times.
The other package (tftp) wasn't set to ensure=>absent in puppet (i only
installed it via mc-package on all nodes, then uninstalled it the same way
