Issue #1720 has been updated by Jo Rhett.
James, I've had no problems managing kernels by putting the entire version
string in the package name.
package { 'kernel-3.4.5-1':
...etc
}
It's less than optimal and I wish the syntax allowed better handling, but it
does seem to work.

Bug #1720: The package resource type doesn't notice installed packages when
more than one is installed
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1720#change-74215
Author: Trevor Hemsley
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Category: package
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 0.24.6

Branch:
On Redhat systems using yum as the package provider, we have a class that says
<pre>
class hpasm {
# This class is meant to keep dependancies for the correct build of the various
hp/compaq components
package {"kernel-smp-devel":
ensure => "2.6.9-67.0.1.EL",
}
}
</pre>
and rpm -q kernel-smp-devel reports
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-55.0.9.EL
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-55.0.2.EL
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-67.0.1.EL
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-67.0.7.EL
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-67.0.20.EL
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL
as installed. However puppetd --test --noop says
notice: //Node[basicnode]/hpasm/Package[kernel-smp-devel]/ensure: is
2.6.9-55.0.9.EL, should be 2.6.9-67.0.1.EL (noop)
I think this is probably a bug since puppet seems to stop looking after the
first rpm it finds
