Jira (PUP-4131) Gem version specifiers are not idempotent

[Josh Cooper (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Josh Cooper updated an issue   Puppet / PUP-4131 Gem version specifiers are not idempotent Change By: Josh Cooper *Original* It would be useful to support Gem version requirements in package resources, such as: {code:puppet}     package { 'hiera-eyaml-gpg':       ensure   => '>= 0.5.rc1',       provider => gem,     } {code} or {code:puppet}     package { 'ruby_gpg':       ensure   => '~> 0.3',       provider => gem,     } {code} *Updated* Previously, if the manifest specified a gem version as a constraint, e.g. {{~> 0.3}}, as opposed to an explicit version {{1.2.3}} or {{latest}}, then the gem provider was not idempotent, and would attempt to reinstall the gem each time. With this fix, the gem provider is idempotent when using a gem version constraint.
