I went with the slightly messy solution of adding the requested repo to
the package name:
package { rubygems:
name => $operatingsystemrelease ? {
/^5\.0\./ => 'rubygems/lenny-backports',
default => 'rubygems',
},
ensure => latest,
}
This causes puppet to 'spam' an "ensure created" line each run and a
wasted call to apt-get.
A temporary solution until squeeze appears and preferences.d is supported.
There is an old puppet issue for this feature request but no solution
was produced: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2406
