Issue #3013 has been updated by Markus Roberts.

Status changed from Accepted to Ready for Testing
Branch set to http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/0.25.x/3013

I have a test fix for this up on 
http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/0.25.x/3013, which incorporates 
Ricky's change and points that came up in discussion on IRC.  I'd like to get 
it tested as thoroughly as possible so we can get a 0.25.3 out in the next day 
or two.  

Things I'd like confirmed:

* Execs that capture output (e.g., using yum, rpm, etc.) work under ruby 1.8.1 
with this patch.
* Ditto on other version of ruby (I'm especially interested in 1.8.2, which is 
an edge-case for this problem; if you can test under 1.8.2 please report the 
patch level)
* Execs that capture more than 4k worth of output, ditto
* Testing this under HPUX to make sure we haven't reverted #2997
* General pounding on it to make sure we haven't just moved the problem

If you can test any of these, it would be greatly appreciated; please post your 
results to the ticket.

In the meantime, I'm going to be trying to add so spec-tests to go with the 
patch, to reduce the chance we ever fall in this particular pit again.

Bug #3013: util.rb:execute broken on Ruby <1.8.3
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/3013

Author: Ricky Zhou
Status: Ready for Testing
Priority: Urgent
Assigned to: Markus Roberts
Category: exec
Target version: 0.25.3
Affected version: 0.25.2
Keywords: 
Branch: http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/0.25.x/3013


Apparently the patch in ticket #2731 introduced one more issue by using 
readpartial, which isn't available until ruby 1.8.3 (RHEL4 at least is 
affected).  I'm not sure how this is normally handled in ruby, but if the 
readpartial function is not available, the code should fall back to sysread 
(along with some code for handling EINTR).

Anybody with better ruby knowledge know how this should be done?
