Description

CFEngine 3.4 is much stricter on the syntax, and we need to define a package_patch_command in the rpmPackageInstallation for it to work

Target version changed from 2.3.12 to 2.6.0~rc1

We only introduced CFEngine 3.4 in Rudder 2.6, no need to make unneeded changes in older versions.

I don't see any problem during execution of rpmPackageInstallation.cf with CFEngine 3.4.4... and I see that #3489 pretends to solve the problem of #3487. So, I suppose We have nothing to do here, right ?

I just tested this on CentOS 6 and there most definitely is a problem. The Technique returns an error, and in verbose output you can see this:

rudder>    =========================================================
rudder>    packages in bundle check_rpm_package_installation (1)
rudder>    =========================================================
rudder> 
rudder> !! Dependency conflict: package_patch_command is not used, but package_patch_arch_regex is defined.

This works again if we remove all the patch definitions from the package_method. Since we don't use this feature.

Subject changed from rpmPackageInstallation is missing package_patch_command to Several Techniques are missing package_patch_command

Actually this error would likely occur in several Techniques that use package_method bodies. I'm fixing them all.

To do this, I have to update cfengine_stdlib.cf to include extra lines. Given the late hour in the release cycle, I don't want to change the whole file, so I've just added in the changes from this commit: https://github.com/cfengine/core/commit/4c90924e3515189696c7760cfc080a27ac8ff37b.
