This means the support tools (yum/rpm I guess in your case) couldn't
find the version specified (14.3-0.tf), and the latest version it could
find was (1.0-1.tf). At least this is how I interpreted the message
(maybe someone could confirm).
What you should check:
1. Can yum install the version you want (14.3.....)? (try it from
command line on the client)
2. Is yum the default package provider for puppet?
run puppet on the client like this
puppetd --test --debug --trace --verbose
and check the output for the default package manager. (maybe
paste this here)
For 1 the solution is to configure yum so it can find the package. As I
am not familiar with yum I can't help you beyond this point if this is
the case.
For 2 well a lot of things can happen so post the debug output from the
client. :-)
