Older python-apt modules don't export Package.installed_files and there
seems to be no other way to figure out if a package is
removed-but-not-purged, so we just always assume it's purged.

A package may be removed but not purged with APT. The only way to
identify this state is by looking at the list of installed files of
a package. Even if the package has no files installed, this list will be
non-empty until the package is removed:
# python -c "import apt; c=apt.Cache(); c.update(); c.open(); p=c['ruby1.8']; print p, p.installed, p.installed_files"
<Package: name:'ruby1.8' id:1425> None [u'']
# dpkg --purge ruby1.8
(Reading database ... 27904 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing ruby1.8 ...
Purging configuration files for ruby1.8 ...
# python -c "import apt; c=apt.Cache(); c.update(); c.open(); p=c['ruby1.8']; print p, p.installed, p.installed_files"
<Package: name:'ruby1.8' id:1425> None []
See http://bugs.debian.org/712749 too.
If a package is not marked installed but it still 'has_files', then it
should be processed if the request is to purge it.

A small error in the reuse of a variable caused packages to never get
purged. This commit fixes that.

hardcoded lists in ansible code, just add WITH_ITEMS_USES_LIST in a
comment anywhere, and of course, support recieving params as list.

Migrated all examples: in DOCUMENTATION=''' string to standalone EXAMPLES=''' string
Added deprecation warning to moduledev.rst and remove deprecated example from it
Fixed up a few typos and uppercased some acronyms.
add consistency to how EXAMPLES are formatted
The biggest change has been to package_latest since it was previously
just comparing version numbers before and after an upgrade had run.
We now parse the output from a dry run instead.
Thanks to Johan Belin for triggering the discussion :).
rhnreg_ks command allows users to manage registration to a Red Hat
Network (RHN) (e.g. rhn.redhat.com) server. The moduel will also
interact with the specified RHN system via XMLRPC as needed.
Before proceeding with registration, the rhnreg_ks module will enable
the system to receive updates from RHN. This involves enabling the
appropriate RHN yum plugin, as well as disabling an active
subscription-manager yum plugin.
Once enabled, the module will support the following operations:
* configure
* register
* subscribe to custom child channels (see `rhn-channel` command)
* unregister
The subscription_manager module acts as a wrapper to the command
'subscription-manager'. The subscription-manager utility allows users
to manage RHN registration, subscription and yum repositories from the
Red Hat Entitlement platform.
Currently, this module supports the following sub-commands:
* config
* [un]register
* subscribe
This code:
```
if name.endswith('.tar.gz') or name.endswith('.tar.bz2') or
name.endswith('.zip'):
is_tar = True
```
was not checking whether name is defined since it is an
optional param.
**Summary**:
There was a bug in the previous commit; pip module would add --use-mirrors options to a source package when state is absent. The bug is resolved in this commit by checking ``not is_package`` in the if branch.
Furthermore, in order to support non-vcs source name like tarballs, we must not add -e option to the arg list. Given this circumstance, this commit have is_tar and is_vcs and the latter is checked to add -e option. Since mirrors do not make sense with vcs or tarball source, this commit will not add --use-mirrors (default to True) as always.
I have something like:
apt: pkg={{ item }} state=present
with_items:
- python-pysqlite2=2.6.3-*
- python-paramiko=1.7.7.1-*
But due to the use of *'s in the version specifications, the apt ansible
module always reports changed: true. This patch fixes that.
New binary package management should be the default soon in FreeBSD, and
is already fully useable through self generated and non official binary
repositories.
- add support for pkgng
- support specifying the repository url as a parameter
- allow not to update cache

Summary:
Pip module would abort when name is a remote package address because
the module was expecting a version if ``=`` is part of the name value.
Furthermore, the pip module would require either name or requirement to
be a key, although the documentation table said neither was required.
The fact that one of them must be present is not documented in the
documentation leads to confusion. This commit added this fact as part
of description.
In this commit, we resolve the confusion by stating either ``name``
or ``requirement`` is needed. Next, if the user puts remote address
as the value of the ``name`` key, we will not use mirror. Lastly,
if the user uses the remote serivice address as the name of the
package and the user does not supply -e option in extra_vars
(which is the whole point of this commit), we will add -e to
extra_vars so pip command can run with -e option.
