    Edward> I first tried to do something like this:

    classes:
        freebsd::
            sudo_installed = ( "/usr/sbin/pkg_info -x sudo" )
        redhat::
            sudo_installed = ( "/bin/rpm -q sudo" )

    shellcommands:
        freebsd.!sudo_installed::
            ...
        redhat.!sudo_installed::
            ...

Hmm, how about (untested) :-

     control:
         freebsd::
            pkg_cmd = ( /usr/sbin/pkg_info -x )

         redhat::
            pkg_cmd = ( /bin/rpm -q )

     classes:
        sudo_installed = ( "${pkg_cmd} sudo" )
