Bug #17951: Windows package provider does not re-run installation when 
subscription updates
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17951

Author: Andrew Dunkman
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal

Category: windows
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 3.0.1
Keywords: windows msi
Branch: 


I have a directory of MSIs that are copied to nodes and run to install 
products; newer versions of MSIs install cleanly over older versions. What I 
would like to do is install the product either 

1. when the product is not yet installed or
2. when the source file changes. 

The first point is easy with the windows package provider, the second point 
seems impossible using the windows package provider. The provider seems to 
ignore its subscriptions.

    file { 'c:/packages/myinstaller.msi':
      ensure => 'file',
      mode   => '1777',
      owner  => 'administrator',
      group  => 'Administrators',
      source => 'puppet:///...',
      notify => Package['My Product'],
    }

    package { 'My Product':
      ensure => installed,
      source => 'c:\\packages\\myinstaller.msi',
    }
