Bug #20015: package => latest tries to downgrade package

----------------------------------------
It appears that when specifying 'latest' this means the latest just in the repo
even if the server itself has a newer version. I would expect that 'latest'
would mean the newest version available regardless of the source.
In our manifest:
package{'facter':
ensure => latest,
provider => 'gem',
}
What is installed locally:
# gem list facter
*** LOCAL GEMS ***
facter (1.6.18)
What the repo has:
# gem list -r facter
*** REMOTE GEMS ***
facter (1.6.17)
What puppet tries to do:
notice: /Stage[main]/Puppet::Client::Hpux/Package[facter]/ensure: ensure
changed '1.6.18' to '1.6.17'
