+# This method allows a block to be passed in and if an exception is raised
+# that matches the 'error_matcher' matcher, the block will wait a set number
+# of seconds before retrying.
+# Params:
+# - max_retry_count - Max number of retries
+# - retry_wait_interval_secs - Number of seconds to wait before retry
+# - error_matcher - Matcher which the exception raised must match to allow retry
+# Example Usage:
+# retry_on_error_matching(3, 5, /OpenGPG Error/) do
+# apply_manifest(pp, :catch_failures => true)
+# end
