Bug #11450: Package provider improperly managing and logging purged resources
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11450
Author: Brett Lentz
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: logging
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.12
Keywords: package purge
Branch:
I have a package resource that I want to remove, including all of its
dependencies. On Red Hat systems, this is done by "yum -y erase <package>".
The corresponding puppet code is:
package { <package>: ensure => purged }
However, puppet prints this into the logs:
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/bin/rpm -q abrt
--nosignature --nodigest --qf %{NAME} %|EPOCH?{%{EPOCH}}:{0}| %{VERSION}
%{RELEASE} %{ARCH}
'
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/usr/bin/yum -y erase
abrt'
notice: /Stage[main]/Global/Package[abrt]/ensure: created
The notice is clearly incorrect, as there's nothing that's been created. In
fact, it repeatedly prints this notice and runs the "yum erase" command long
after the package has *actually* been removed.
Both of these behaviors are incorrect.
My expectation is:
1. Logged notices for purged resources should not describe anything as being
"created".
2. Puppet should only run the "yum erase" command only if the package query
("rpm -q") returns a valid result.
