Issue #3229 has been updated by Graham Bleach.
I've just tripped up on this when using a selector. I'd like to vote for case
sensitivity to be the default. Clearly changing to this is going to break
things for all the people who are accidentally depending on case insensitivity,
hopefully that's not many.
In the intervening time I'm adding both mixed and lowercase versions so that
things don't break if this bug is fixed:
$string = "Hello World"
$test = $string ? {
/Hello/ => "yes",
/hello/ => "yes",
default => "no",
}
notify{"$test":}

Bug #3229: Case regex are not case-insensitive
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/3229
Author: Brice Figureau
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: Brice Figureau
Category: language
Target version:
Affected version: 0.25.4
Keywords: regex case language selector
Branch:
By default puppet case or selector statements are case insensitive.
This is done by downcasing both the side of the comparison.
Unfortunately, case regexes are still case sensitive, so the following manifest
fails:
<pre>
$var = "CaseSensitive"
case $var {
/CaseSensitive/: {
notice("worked")
}
default: {
fail "miserably"
}
}
</pre>
The proposed change is to make sure case or selector regex are insensitive by
default.
