Description
Hello,
the puppet-agent in version 6.9.0 (I am not sure on which version bug appeared first) has broken package provider in a way than it "eats" colon ":" from package name.
Which breaks package/slot handling on Gentoo Linux.
On Gentoo you can install package with emerge to a specific version slot by specifying slot after package name separated with a colon eg.:
"emerge dev-db/postgresql:11"
On puppet-agent version 6.7.2 it was working alright.
Best regards
AM
