Puppet / PUP-7238 Yum package provider should support reinstall Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2017/02/21 1:49 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Justin We were attempting to reinstall a yum (rpm) package using the "reinstall_on_refresh" capability of the package. However, it did not do the reinstall because the package provider does not support this feature. Yum has a reinstall command, it would be nice if puppet could use this. Add Comment

Re: Yum package provider should support reinstall The workaround we did is to write our own custom yum package provider. We added the "reinstallable" feature and then a function like so: def reinstall current_package = self.query self.debug "Reinstalling #{@resource[:name]} version #{current_package[:ensure]}" execute([command(:cmd), "-y", :reinstall, @resource[:name]]) end in our tests, this seemed to work.

Re: Yum package provider should support reinstall I'm curious, why is this not yet fixed? I looked at 6735 and 8157, and there doesn't appear to be any explanation as to why this issue has not been fixed; just a comment in 8157 that it was removed from the epic. What am I missing? Thanks!

Edwin Wiles We're re-organizing our backlog away from using open-ended epics as buckets of tickets, to using labels so we can slice-and-dice the backlog more easily. Part of this effort is bringing easy tickets like this to light, so hopefully it'll end up on a roadmap soon.
