Title: Message Title

Paul Makepeace created an issue   Puppet / PUP-4525 install_options confused on the way to `gem` Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 3.7.3 Assignee: Kylo Ginsberg Components: Types and Providers Created: 2015/05/04 4:24 PM Environment: OS X 10.10.2 Priority: Normal Reporter: Paul Makepeace When an `install_options` using the `gem` version specifier with `~>` is used it seems to be passed down to `gem` in a way that causes an error (stringified array?). The command line that's reported to be causing the error when pasted into the command line, works. $ sudo puppet --version 3.7.3   $ sudo puppet apply package { 'puppet': ensure => present, provider => gem, install_options => {'--version' => '~> 3.0'}, } ^D Notice: Compiled catalog for reg539.apple.com in environment production in 2.41 seconds Error: Execution of '/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p643/bin/gem install --no-rdoc --no-ri puppet --version="~> 3.0"' returned 1: ERROR: While executing gem ...
