engle, does it work when you avoid the define and just do a standard
package install?
Note that the pkgdmg provider relies upon marker files for packages in
/var/db/.puppet_installed_* so if that marker already exists, it won't
reinstall it. (There's no necessary link between the dmg name and the
packages that are contained within it)
That may be your problem.
