yum. thats the way you do it, 
you can see an example of this in aws  community cookbook, which provides elastic ip and eb colume resources but needs right_aws gem .

how about this?

# at beginning of lwrp

f = package "foo" do

  action :install

end

f.run_action(:install)

this might trigger the install action immediately

this is just an idea. I have done something similar w/ execute resources but not with package resources

Hi :-)

I was tring to find a example or doc about how to do it and I didn't
find. Maybe I didn't know where to search...

My problem is that I have a LWRP that need a Ruby library ( require
'sqlite3' ) and I don't know how to be sure that the library is
already installed.
Is there any way to install the package from the cookbook before the
provider (LWRP) be loaded?

Any pointers will help. I'm already trying at
$COOKBOOK/libraries/default.rb with no much luck. At least I don't
know how to call properly from there the 'package' provider.

Thanks :-)
