[BUG] OpenBSD - False-failure pkg_add ‘stems with flavors’

OpenBSD 6.8 with distro package salt-3001.1 minion and 3001.1 master.

OpenBSD has ‘stems with flavors’ to cope with dealing with different versions of a package in the repo (https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-6.8/pkg_add)

So, for example, the 6.8 packages repo has gnupg versions 1 and 2. So to ensure v2 was installed, you would run pkg_add gnupg--%gnupg2

However given the following Salt SLS :

openbsd_pkgs:
  pkg.installed:
    - pkgs:
      - gnupg--%gnupg2

The OpenBSD minion will give you a false failure:

This happens both on initial apply and still happens if you re-run state.apply. In all instances this is a false failure.

Meanwhile, if you login to the OpenBSD machine, it is clear that the package installed successfully because:

(1) Nothing new gets installed if you run manually AND a return code of 0 is provided:

$pkg_add gnupg--%gnupg2

$ echo $?                                                                                                               
0    

(2) pkg_info confirms it is installed ("inst"):

$ pkg_info gnupg
Information for inst:gnupg-2.2.23p0

(3) The command exists:

$ gpg2 --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.23
