Issue #18427 has been updated by Pedro Côrte-Real.
I've hit this issue with nothing but the default rubygems repository. Here's a
minimal puppet script that causes the issue:
package {'nokogiri':
provider => 'gem',
ensure => 'latest',
}
The output from this is the same every time:
$ sudo puppet apply puppet-gem-bug.pp
Notice: /Stage[main]//Package[nokogiri]/ensure: ensure changed '["1.5.9"]'
to '1.5.9 ruby java x86-mingw32 x86-mswin32-60'
Notice: Finished catalog run in 9.97 seconds
I'm running the latest puppet from apt.puppetlabs.com and the latest rubygems
from ruby 1.9 in ubuntu precise.
$ puppet --version
3.1.1
$ gem -v
1.8.11
I believe the extra stuff after the version number are the platforms that the
gem supports. This is common in gems that have native extensions. The
workaround should probably be to do a split by "," to get the various versions
and then do a split by " " and take the first to get the actual version number.

Bug #18427: gem package provider updates gems even if the gem is already at the
latest revision
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18427#change-91162
* Author: Luke M
* Status: Investigating
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Charlie Sharpsteen
* Category: package
* Target version:
* Affected Puppet version: 2.7.20
* Keywords: gem server
* Branch:
----------------------------------------
Using:
package{'facter':
ensure => latest,
provider => 'gem',
source => "http://puppet:8808";,
}
Produces:
notice: /Stage[main]/Common_puppet::Hpux/Package[facter]/ensure: ensure
changed '1.6.17' to '1.6.17 ruby'
This happens on every puppet run.
