Bug details

Describe the bug

On launch salt {minion} state.sls php.modules (php.apcu) and/or salt {minion} php.fpm, they both failed by trying to install duplicate package.

Steps to reproduce the bug

salt {minion} state.sls php.modules produce only this error :

Expected behaviour

This 2 errors didn't appear when the same pillar is launched on older sminions server (salt-minion 3002.9+ds-1). There is not any duplicates packages in queue.

Attempts to fix the bug

In installed.jinja, i've write
line 23:

  {% if other_version_str != first_version %}
    {% do pkgs.append(pkg.replace(first_version, other_version_str)) %}
  {% endif %}

and line 36:

  {% if other_version_str != first_version %}
    {% do pkgs.append(pkginfo.replace(first_version, other_version_str)) %}
  {% endif %}

And it seems to correct salt state.sls php.fpm error.
But i didn't yet identified the problem with php.apcu or php.modules state.

Additional context

• Same error fro php.apc state...
• Maybe upgrade the default php version 7.0 in jinja's files to 8.x...

Thanks

Hello there! I've found a temporal solution for this problem. In the installed.jinja file, after looping through all the different versions to create the pkgs and specials arrays, you can use the unique Jinja filter to remove duplicates.

line 39, add this piece of code.

{% set pkgs = pkgs | unique %}
{% set specials = specials | unique %}

After applying the fix, no more duplicate packages errors appear while calling php.modules, php.ini or php.fpm.
