Hi Ryan, I experience the same. I'm using gem provider to manage puppet and facter installed versions. When I recently upgraded a selection of nodes to 2.7.1 I saw other not being removed like the way apt is doing.
I would like to see what you purpose. Ensure => 2.7.1 also removes 2.6.8, 2.6.4 --- Martin 2011/7/8 Ryan Conway <ryan.con...@forward.co.uk>: > Hey everyone, > > I'm experiencing an issue resulting from the way RubyGems works when > dealing with multiple gem versions. > > When managing a gem through the Package provider, setting ensure to a > version lower than a currently installed version will result in Puppet > installing the older version, however RubyGems will also keep the > newer version, and this newer version will remain the default. > > The issue was actually reported a couple of years ago, so I've updated > the original ticket: > > http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2061 > > I would like to see the Package provider have an option to remove > other versions of a gem it is managing, so that only the version you > specify remains. > > Has anyone else experienced this issue, or have any thoughts? > > Thanks, > Ryan > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To post to this group, send email to puppet-users@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
