[Puppet Users] Problem with YUM provider?

I seem to be having a problem with the yum provider and nailing down
specific package versions on specific architectures.

I.e.

package { "foo.x86_64":
   ensure => "1"
}

looks for foo.x86_64-1

which yum doesn''t like.

package { "foo":
   ensure => 1.x86_64"
}

works for yum, but not for the package check as it checks for the
current installed version of foo and gets foo-1 which it tries to
compare to foo-1.x86_64.

I don''t have access to my Redmine account info right now or
I''d put in
a bug report.

Thanks,

Trevor
