Bug #16147: Ensure parameter in "package" type behaves in a wrong way
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16147

Author: Gianluca Varisco
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal

Category: 
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.17

Branch: 


I made a typo in the package definition. "preset" as a value for the "ensure" 
type instead of "present".

package { 'collectd':
ensure => **preset**,
name   => $collectd::params::packagename,
 }

It was parsed as you can see below:

err: /Stage[main]/Collectd/Package[collectd]/ensure: change from 4.10.7-1.el6 
to preset failed: Could not update: **Execution of '/usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y 
install collectd-preset'** returned 1: Error: Nothing to do
 at /tmp/vagrant-puppet/modules-0/collectd/manifests/init.pp:20

Is the ensure attribute validating the values inserted? Is it the correct 
behaviour? Shouldn't it checks for one of the valid values? (present/installed, 
absent, purged, held, latest)

Tested in 2.7.17
