Which version of the Technique Package management for RHEL / CentOS / SUSE / RPM systems did you used to have these errors ? Did you change the versions of the Technique after the upgrade ?
It could be an error returned by the package manager which have been caught by CFEngine, it is easy to test:
On CentOS:
yum install git
echo $?
If the code is not 0, this is considered a an error
The problem is that the packages are already installed by Rudder 2.5. Rudder 2.5 reported Success, which is true, while Rudder 2.6 reports Error.
# yum install git
Loaded plugins: etckeeper, rhnplugin, security
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite.
Setting up Install Process
Package git-1.7.4.1-1.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
# echo $?
0
# rpm -qa | grep git
git-1.7.4.1-1.el5
Somehow this issue has been resolved automagically.

Automagically ? didn't you updated the Technique ?
I'm not sure. I copied the techniques from /opt/rudder/share/techniques/ to /var/rudder/configuration-repository, dit a Git commit and reloaded the technique lib. It looks like this solved the problem.

Ok, I'm pretty sure this is what happened :)
What was the version of the previous Rudder ?
The version of the current Rudder is 2.6.${latest} and the version of the previous Rudder is 2.5.${latest}.

It is unfortunate that we have never been able to reproduce this, or determine why it happened.
However, there have been quite a few fixes to rpmPackageInstallation recently, hopefully they correct whatever happened here... I don't like closing a bug without knowing why, but since Dennis' installation "fixed itself", and we have no way of knowing how to reproduce this, OK.
Please re-open if this occurs again.
