consul_installation_package uses action :upgrade which ignores version on redhat

[Jordan B]

libraries/consul_installation_package.rb is using action :upgrade on the package create action. This ignores version for the yum provider, and in turn means this cookbook always is upgrading consul to the latest version regardless of the version specified. :install would be a much nicer default action, but making this configurable would also be nice.

:upgrade
Install a package and/or ensure that a package is the latest version. This action will ignore the version attribute.

I'm running in to this same issue as well. I think the :install action would be okay.
