Issue #7485 has been updated by Thomas Willert.

@Jacob  McCann: Very nice. This seem to be a good way to fix the provider 
itself.

Bug #7485: zypper 0.6 not working with puppet (default version in SLES 10.4 and 
earlier)
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7485

Author: Thomas Willert
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: package
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.0rc1
Keywords: zypper sles package provider
Branch: 


The Puppet package provider "zypper" is not working for zypper version 0.6. 
This version is the default version in SLES 10.x. Zypper version 1.0 is not 
available until SLES11.x.
The zypper provider is asuming version 1.x as it is using the command options 
"-l", "-y" and "--quiet".
I am using these versions:
    Puppet 2.7.0
    Facter 1.5.7
    zypper-0.6.200-0.4.49
Error message:
    err: /Stage[main]/Sudo/Package[sudo]/ensure: change from absent to present 
failed: Execution of '/usr/bin/zypper --quiet install -l -y sudo' returned 2: 
Unknown option --quiet
    Unknown command '_unknown'.

>From looking at 
>"/usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/package/zypper.rb" I can see 
>that this provider is coded for zypper 1.0 only. See line 25.
For zypper 0.6 to non-interactive way to install a (sudo) rpm is:
    # zypper -n install sudo
For 0.6 compability the Ruby code for zypper should be extended to include a 
version check.
For version 1.0 do this (same as current):
    # /usr/bin/zypper --quiet install -l -y sudo
For version 0.6 do this:
    # /usr/bin/zypper -n install sudo
