Issue #19782 has been updated by Josh Cooper. Status changed from Unreviewed to Investigating
Hi Klavs, It'd be great to improve the user experience around this, but unfortunately it can be complicated. An install may install multiple products. Also the resource name can be a PackageCode (for example when installing a product whose name doesn't change across versions, e.g. VMware Tools, and you want to be sure a particular version is installed). The algorithm would need to take these issues into account. ---------------------------------------- Feature #19782: package on windows - check "name" isn't wrong https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19782#change-87638 * Author: Klavs Klavsen * Status: Investigating * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- Perhaps puppet should compare the list of installed package “displaynames” before and after each package install – so it can figure out what the Displayname of the just installed package is – and then compare that against the “name” given in the manifest – and complain to the user, if it’s wrong – as to catch these problems ?
