apt::ppa not adding a ppa repository which was previously removed or purged about puppetlabs-apt HOT 3 CLOSED

#169 should fix this.

from puppetlabs-apt.

Trying to install a php5 version from ppa:ondrej/php5-oldstable on ubuntu 12.04 with a vagrant precise64 box.
The command in my init.pp

apt::ppa { 'ppa:ondrej/php5-oldstable': }

With the #169 fix it creates a file in /etc/apt/source.list.d/ondrej-php5-oldstable-precise.list with a size of zero.
When I povision again the file is still there with a size of zero. So it solves not the problem above mentioned.
And I can´t create the right ondrej-php5-oldstable-precise.list file.

When I change the line 45 in apt/manifests/ppa.pp to the old version

creates  => "${sources_list_d}/${sources_list_d_filename}",
#instead of: onlyif  => "/usr/bin/test -s ${sources_list_d}/${sources_list_d_filename}", 

It works, until the file size is zero.
