Bug #9655: Strange behaviour with collections and package providers

I have the following basic class:
<pre>
class yum {
yumrepo { "foo":
...
notify => Exec["yum clean all"],
}
yumrepo { "bar":
...
notify => Exec["yum clean all"],
}
exec { "yum clean all":
refreshonly => true,
}
Exec["yum clean all"] -> Package <| provider == yum |>
}
</pre>
So basically I'd like to run "yum clean all" after making any changes to the
repository config and before I install any packages. However, I can't get the
dependency created unless I explicitly set the provider to yum in any
individual package resources. So the following examples all fail:
On a CentOS host where yum is/should be the default provider:
<pre>
node baz {
include yum
package { "vim": ensure => present }
}
</pre>
Setting a resource default globally for all Packages:
<pre>
Package {
provider => yum,
}
node baz {
include yum
package { "vim": ensure => present }
}
</pre>
Setting the resource default for all Packages just on the node in question:
<pre>
node baz {
Package {
provider => yum,
}
include yum
package { "vim": ensure => present }
}
</pre>
The only way I got it to work is with:
<pre>
node baz {
include yum
package { "vim":
ensure => present,
provider => yum, # Ick
}
}
</pre>
I can also make it work by removing the condition "provider == yum" in the
Package <| |> collection or even changing the == to !=. I'm verifying the
presence of the dependency by looking at the graph .dot output as sometimes the
random ordering can make it look like it's working.
