The steps in warning state itself might not mean there is an error,
but it should be reviewed to ensure the behavior is expected


[root@dhcp-3-115 foreman_maintain]# foreman-maintain packages update rubygem-foreman_maintain,zsh
ERROR: install or update 'rubygem-foreman_maintain' package individually.
[root@dhcp-3-115 foreman_maintain]# foreman-maintain packages update rubygem-foreman_maintain zsh
ERROR: too many arguments

See: 'foreman-maintain packages update --help'
[root@dhcp-3-115 foreman_maintain]# foreman-maintain packages install rubygem-foreman_maintain zsh
ERROR: install or update 'rubygem-foreman_maintain' package individually.

# foreman-maintain packages update rubygem-foreman_maintain, zsh
ERROR: too many arguments

See: 'foreman-maintain packages update --help'

# foreman-maintain packages install rubygem-foreman_maintain, zsh
ERROR: install or update 'rubygem-foreman_maintain' package individually.

Actual results:
foreman-maintain packages install and update command treats same package list input differently. 

Expected results:
Consistent/same package input format for foreman-maintain packages install/update command.

Hello,

Can we get a 0.6.z upstream release of foreman_maintain with this fix in it?

Thanks,
Patrick

Verified

Verified with:
- Satellite 6.8.0 snap 15
- rubygem-foreman_maintain-0.6.10-1.el7sat.noarch

Observation:
- foreman-maintain packages install/update command use space separated packages list.
    foreman-maintain packages update/install [OPTIONS] pkg1 pkg2 pkg3

- all other command options need to be provided before packages list. In following format:
    foreman-maintain packages update/install [OPTIONS] [PACKAGES] ...
