rpm package installation: confusing error message when there is no such package
Issue Type: Improvement Improvement
Assignee: Unassigned
Created: 2023/01/09 2:08 AM
Priority: Normal Normal
Reporter: Konrad Bucheli

Puppet Agent Version: 7.21.0
Puppet Server Version: 7.9.2
OS Name/Version: RHEL 8.7

Desired Behavior:
Error message states that there is no such package.

Actual Behavior:

package {'nc':}

results when applying in

Error: /Stage[main]/Role::Workstation/Package[nc]: Could not evaluate: no implicit conversion of Array into Hash

which looks like an error in the code, but

# dnf info nc
 
Last metadata expiration check: 2:37:27 ago on Mo 09 Jan 2023 08:22:22 CET.
 
Error: No matching Packages to list

Hi Konrad Bucheli,

Could you run again with --debug so we can better diagnose this issue?

Thanks for the output Konrad Bucheli . Would you also be able to add --trace to that as well?
