Thanks Eric for your soon answer.. BUT, suppose I have a puppet client which has collectd 4.4.2 already installed and when it gets the new catalog (to install version 4.7.2), puppet gives an error saying there's a conflict between collectd 4.7.2 and collectd 4.4.2 and it does not install the latest version. So, I tried to remove the old package and install the newone in the same class but I couldn't because you can notcreate duplicate resources wutj the same name.
My question is: How can I remove/purge the old collectd (4.4.2) and install the new version using package resource?
