Issue #1398 has been updated by Xavier Nicollet.
Tracker changed from Feature to Bug
Affected Puppet version changed from 2.7.21 to 3.3.1
Just want to install memcached server, and memcached gem (the client) on the
same host:
<pre>
package { 'memcached':
ensure => installed,
provider => gem,
}
package { 'memcached':
ensure => installed,
provider => apt,
}
</pre>
Can't use puppet for that on this host. So, should I go back to some hand made
scripts ?
Is there any workaround ?
(for me, it is clearly a bug, not a feature request).
Still present in puppet 3.3.1.

----------------------------------------
I have a common package name, that's in two different package managers
(one with yum the other with gem)
package { "remove-mysql":
name => "mysql",
provider => "yum",
ensure => absent,
}
---------------------------------------------------------
package { "gem-mysql":
name => "mysql",
ensure => "2.7",
provider => gem,
}
---------------------------------------------------------
I get this error.
