Hello,

Working through some issues with upgrading our environment from 2.x to 3.5 
(now I should probably target 3.6 !) anyway we have a module which 
does basically.

package { 'openssh-server':
  ensure => 'absent',
}

package { '3rd-party-ssh':
  ensure => 'installed'
}

This 3rd party SSH package has a "provides" of openssh-server on it. As 
such if you issue a "yum remove openssh-server" manually it will try and 
remove
the 3rd party version. Which is the standard YUM behaviour I believe.

So therefore on the 3.x servers the package is being removed/installed 
every time and as there is no dependencies here it can leave us without an 
SSH
server running.

Which I guess is probably what we are actually telling it to do. But this 
never happens in the 2.x series.

Any ideas on why, and how we can stop this behaviour ?

Thanks
Paul
