I don't think it's a matter of working on it on the server side of puppet.

rpm, dpkg or gems, it doesn't really change the risk, nor the
complication. You need something that says:

  - stop the service
  - run command X (with no calls to elements of the package itself) --
rollback if it fails
  - start the service

Hard to do right.
