cni-plugins, crictl & etcd cannot be updated

[olavst-spk]

Affected Puppet, Ruby, OS and module versions/distributions

• Puppet: 7.30.0
• Ruby: 2.7.8
• Distribution: RHEL9
• Module version: 2.0.1

How to reproduce

Install a cluster using the default parameters.

Then try to update cni-plugins, crictl or etcd by changing one of these version parameters (for example through hiera):

• k8s::install::cni_plugins::version
• k8s::install::crictl::version
• k8s::etcd_version

What are you seeing

cni-plugins, crictl & etcd stay on the same version.

What behaviour did you expect instead

cni-plugins, crictl & etcd should be updated to the specified versions.

Output log

Puppet reports no changes since the last run.

Any additional information you'd like to impart

I think the problem is that these components are installed using the archive resource with creates set. Puppet does not download the new version because the files specified in creates already exist.

Should probably be changed to a similar system to the main k8s binaries - i.e. /opt/k8s-cni / /opt/k8s-crictl / /opt/k8s-etcd and symlinks.
