I'd like to pass command line options for a package installed via a gem provider. In particular, I'm updating puppet, the equivalent command would be:
/usr/bin/gem1.8 install puppet -v=2.6.1 --no-rdoc --no-ri (The extra docs that gets installed with puppet take WAY too long and are unnecessary on production). I'm running a very simple "self- update" of Puppet per this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/cb26b8973bc70925 like so: class puppet ($version) { package { "puppet": ensure => $version, provider => gem } } How do I pass command line options? Do I need to create a custom provider? My guess is I'll probably end up using an "exec" resource with an onlyif condition.
