I use a simple module with one class for mass-installing packages and
another one for mass-uninstalling, like:
class linux_base::install ($packages = undef) {
$packages.each |String $pkg| {
package { $pkg: ensure => latest, }
}
}
where $packages is an array of package names (strings), which can easily
be provided for each (group of) host(s) via Hiera.
The ::uninstall class has "purge" instead of "latest". Of course, input
array for both classes must be mutually exclusive, if both are used at
the same time.
HTH...
