I have a define:
define pt::package() {
package{$name:
ensure => extlookup("${name}_pkg", "present")
}
}
It uses extlookup[1] so it means using the extlookup data I decide that a
certain environment/country/operating system etc have different versions from
others, makes it easy to stage deployments through environments.
Also means in some machines I can uninstall screen for example while on a
certain client machines I can install it.
