Hey,

Due to some special requirements in my environment i need support for custom 
install options in PIP (and the PIP provider).

I wrote a small patch to the pip package provider to support the feature i 
needed (custom install options sent to pip).

Here is an example of what I needed:
<pre>
  package {'carbon':
    ensure   => installed,
    provider => 'pip',
    require  => Package['python-twisted'],
    install_options => ['--prefix=/home/user/graphite', 
'--install-lib=/home/user/graphite/libs'],
  }
</pre>
So I extended the package provider locally to support such syntax. And I'd like 
to get it integrated upstream. I've tested and it works well for me here, using 
debian6.

Here is the patch: (same patch in unified format is included as an attached 
file)
<pre>
12c12
<   has_feature :installable, :uninstallable, :upgradeable, :versionable
---
>   has_feature :installable, :uninstallable, :upgradeable, :versionable, 
> :install_options
81a82,86
>       end
>     end
>     if @resource[:install_options]
>       @resource[:install_options].each do |install_option|
>         args << "--install-option="+install_option
</pre>
If this doesnt follow puppet's style or guidelines, feel free to point me to 
them. :)
