Puppet as a language is declarative, rather than imperative. So the
package resource actually does exactly what you describe here.
package { "xyz":
ensure => '1.2',
}
The above would, if it finds xyz installed at version 1.2 do nothing.
If it's not installed, or installed at a previous version, it will
update the package to the specified version.
