what's the best way to ensure a certain version of nginx package gets installed

It seems that currently the module does not have a way to supply a version of the nginx version that you want. What would be the best way to enable that? add an extra parameter? or does puppet or this module allow you to do it some other way. Thanks

This module at this time doesn't have the ability to dynamically set the package version, but that'd be relatively easy to do if you wanna work up a PR.

Basically, setup a parameter in Class[nginx] that cascades to Class[nginx::package] and sets the version. Make sure there is a default in the params class that the module can fall back to if need be.

#132 handles this.
