(Patrick's Homebrew provider lit a fire under me to finish this.) I've written a provider for Python's pip package management frontend. It's (theoretically) the standard for the future, being more capable and less shit than easy_install.
https://github.com/rcrowley/puppet-pip As noted in the README, you can actually use it by setting RUBYLIB thus: gem install puppet-pip RUBYLIB="$GEM_HOME/1.8/gems/puppet-pip-0.0.2/lib" puppet apply test.pp It supports ensure => latest now plus specific version numbers. Uninstallation doesn't work properly on Debian/Ubuntu because of a bug in python-setuptools, which I believe will be fixed in Ubuntu Natty Narwhal. Please report issues on GitHub!
