Eventually I found an answer to this question of auto installation and
test of the install of a package!!

Look!!!


 classes:

     smtp = ( ReturnsZero(/bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/dpkg -l ssmtp |grep
^ii")  )


  shellcommands:

    !ssmtp::

     "/usr/bin/apt-get --assume-yes --trivial-only install --purge
ssmtp"
