Issue #4953 has been updated by Daniel Grafe.
File zypper.rb_diff added
File yum.rb_diff added
Ok, sorry for the delay. We've cloned the puppet repository, modified the
provider and were happy.
I have attached diffs of the modifications we made. You can then install all of
the packages of the pattern (or package group in RHEL) using the pattern name
in a package resource.
For testing you can use the x11 pattern:
package { "x11": .... } (SLES11)
package { "@x11": .... } (RHEL6)

Feature #4953: Zypper Provider should support Patterns
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4953
Author: Daniel Grafe
Status: Needs More Information
Priority: Normal

Category: package
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.0

Branch:
SUSE defines software package lists called patterns. These patterns are
combining related packages to useful software collections. For instance, the
pattern "Basis-Devel" would give you the autotools, gcc, kernel sources etc...
Zypper can be used to install all packages from these lists by installing the
pattern when setting the type explicitely to pattern. For example: zypper
install -t pattern Basis-Devel
When using the zypper provider in puppet it would be nice to be able to install
these patterns. Please find attached our quick modification of the provider. It
will detect if the given name identifies a pattern or a package and will call
zypper with the appropriate flags.
