Bug #18926: Package names not qualified by provider
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18926
Author: Ken Coar
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: package
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.18
Keywords:
Branch:
[Puppet 2.7 on RHEL6 and Fedora]
The names of packages from different providers should be namespaced/qualified
by the provider, or else erroneous conflicts may result.
These two resources conflict:
package {
'foo':
provider => yum,
}
package {
'foo':
provider => gem,
}
Duplicate declaration: Package[foo] is already declared; cannot redeclare
(The names are fake, obviously, to avoid clouding the issue with 'use this
other name instead')
I tried working around it by using a different name for the resources, but no
joy -- the name attribute **is** the namevar:
package {
'foo':
name => 'rpm-foo',
provider => yum,
}
package {
'foo':
name => 'gem-foo',
provider => gem,
}
Duplicate declaration: Package[foo] is already declared; cannot redeclare
Someone in IRC suggested including the architecture in the RPM declaration, like
"foo.${::architecture}":
but that is at best a hack, and breaks anyway if the package isn't architecture
specific (*i.e.*, **`.noarch`**).
