Issue #8011 has been updated by Dominic Cleal.

I think somehow we've got muddled, because as far as I can see, both the Puppet 
and the Ruby DSL provide arrays when you provide an array of multiple values 
(`source => [ 'foo', 'bar' ]`) and they both provide a string when you quote a 
single value.  Above when I tested the Ruby DSL, I should have tested the 
Puppet DSL at the same time!

I can't see under what circumstances we thought that multiple URLs would be 
passed in as a single string.  It looks like we assumed this somehow because I 
copied similar code from the Augeas provider.  I think this only existed in the 
Augeas provider (originally, commit `cacafeb4` line 127) as the data could be 
multi-line rather than Puppet providing an array as a newline-delimited string.

    class packages {
        package { "foo":
            ensure   => present,
            source   => [ "foo", "bar" ],
            provider => rpm,
        }
    }
    node default {
        include packages
    }

If we have been looking at a non-issue, then the code should indeed handle both 
cases for single/multiple values.

Feature #8011: Support temp repo URL in pkgutil provider
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8011

Author: Dominic Cleal
Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Jacob Helwig
Category: package
Target version: Telly
Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: pkgutil solaris
Branch: https://github.com/domcleal/puppet/tree/tickets/master/8011b


The pkgutil provider should support using the "source" attribute of the package 
type as a temporary repo URL, then supply it to pkgutil with the -t option.

Other providers such as gem, pip, openbsd, freebsd and ports support this usage 
already.
