Hello Stefan, Yes, I am using Puppet 3.0.0 and RHEL 6.3.
According to the Puppetlabs site, 'purged' should be supported with 'yum' in the latest version of Puppet: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#package As 3.0 is a major release, and two versions (and two years) newer...I wasn't sure if this bug needs to be reported. Anyway.....Here's the debug output: build ~]# puppet agent -tv --debug Debug: Failed to load library 'rubygems' for feature 'rubygems' Debug: Using settings: adding file resource 'lastrunreport':
