Puppet users - Feb 2014 - Hiera to define an array of packages that should be installed

Right now my init.pp contains the following code block:

package { [ 'package-1', 'package-2', '...' ]:
  ensure => 'present',
  require => *Exec*['apt_update'],
}

This works great — no problem there — but I'd love to use a single
init.ppfor production and development and control the behavior of everything via
my Hiera files. This would also allow me to exchange some packages 
depending on the operating system without writing modules for simple 
package installations. I tried a few things and searched for answers; 
without luck.

Maybe you guys have an idea on how to solve this.

Regards
Richard
