Sorry for the late reply, Rob.
Putting the endash as a unicode character in my manifest causes it to miss
the package being already installed.
file { "${tempDirectory}WindowsAzureLibsForNet-x64.msi":
ensure => present,
source => 'puppet:///modules/packages/WindowsAzureLibsForNet-x64.msi',
}
->
package { 'Azure Libraries for .NET – v2.3':
ensure => '2.3.0424.070',
source => "${tempDirectory}WindowsAzureLibsForNet-x64.msi"
}
When I run my manifest I get this:
Notice: /Stage[main]/Packages::Msi/Package[Azure Libraries for .NET ΓÇô
v2.3]/ensure: created
