Old URL releases are not removed

[SaschaDoering]

How to reproduce (e.g Puppet code you use)

Use $install_method = 'url' and update $version in any exporter.

What are you seeing

If you do this a few times, it can lead to the following:

  177.5 MiB [##########] /prometheus-2.28.1.linux-amd64
  162.0 MiB [######### ] /prometheus-2.24.1.linux-amd64
  159.9 MiB [######### ] /puppetlabs
  158.7 MiB [########  ] /prometheus-2.23.0.linux-amd64

   17.7 MiB [          ] /node_exporter-1.2.0.linux-amd64
   17.4 MiB [          ] /blackbox_exporter-0.19.0.linux-amd64
   16.3 MiB [          ] /blackbox_exporter-0.16.0.linux-amd64
   16.1 MiB [          ] /node_exporter-0.18.1.linux-amd64

What behaviour did you expect instead

I would expect the old no longer used releases to be removed in order not to consume unnecessary resources.

Any additional information you'd like to impart

To achieve this I have created a directory under /opt which can be purged. There are other ways, but I
found this the cleanest.

seems like tarballs in /tmp are not removed either after installation, perhaps a cleanup boolean defaulting to true to control this behaviour would be in order too

[TheMeier]

Is it possible this was due voxpupuli/puppet-archive#328 and is gone now?

[TheMeier]

I just checked tarballs in /tmp are removed after installation.

IMHO this is fixed. If not please re-open
