Issue #2833 has been updated by Zachary Stern.
Especially strange is that the issue doesn't show up using the RAL from the
command line.
E.g.:
[root@master3 ~]# puppet resource package bluez ensure=present
Notice: /Package[bluez]/ensure: created
package { 'bluez':
ensure => '4.66-1.el6',
}
[root@master3 ~]# puppet resource package bluez ensure=purged
Notice: /Package[bluez]/ensure: ensure changed '4.66-1.el6' to 'purged'
package { 'bluez':
ensure => 'absent',
}
[root@master3 ~]# puppet resource package bluez ensure=purged
Notice: /Package[bluez]/ensure: created
package { 'bluez':
ensure => 'absent',
}
Puppet detects no change when you run the third command. And yet during a run,
it's marked as changed.

Bug #2833: yum provider keeps re-purging package
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2833#change-97182
* Author: Adrian Bridgett
* Status: Duplicate
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Jesse Wolfe
* Category: package
* Target version:
* Affected Puppet version:
* Keywords:
* Branch:
----------------------------------------
With a manifest containing:
<pre>
package { "nano": ensure => purged; }
</pre>
Each time I run puppet I'm seeing this:
<pre>
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/bin/rpm -q nano
--nosignature --nodigest --qf %{NAME} %|EPOCH?{%{EPOCH}}:{0}| %{VERSION}
%{RELEASE} %{ARCH}
'
debug: //Node[redhat]/default_class/packages::purge::basic/Package[nano]:
Changing ensure
debug: //Node[redhat]/default_class/packages::purge::basic/Package[nano]: 1
change(s)
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderYum: Executing '/usr/bin/yum -y erase
nano'
notice:
//Node[redhat]/default_class/packages::purge::basic/Package[nano]/ensure:
created
</pre>
Even though the package isn't installed. I can't see anything in subsequent
releases that suggest this may have changed. On Debian this seems to work just
fine (no notices). This also means that related notifies keep being called
even though the system state isn't changing.
