Jira (PUP-5913) Detected resources in parsedfile provider can ignore duplicates

[Matthew Byng-Maddick (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Matthew Byng-Maddick created an issue   Puppet / PUP-5913 Detected resources in parsedfile provider can ignore duplicates Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.3.2, PUP 4.3.1, PUP 4.3.0 Assignee: Kylo Ginsberg Components: Catalog Application Created: 2016/02/17 2:51 AM Environment: N/A Priority: Normal Reporter: Matthew Byng-Maddick Puppet's parsedfile provider can incorrectly ignore (and then fail to manage) duplicate resources. In our setup (for reasons I don't completely understand) we start off with a hosts file containing: 127.0.0.1 <fqdn> <hostname> 127.0.1.1 <fqdn> <hostname> We then apply something like the following: host { <fqdn>: ensure => present, ip => <real_ip>, host_aliases => [<hostname>]; "puppet": ensure => present, ip => <puppetserver_ip>; "localhost.localdomain": ensure => present, ip => "127.0.0.1", host_aliases => ["localhost"]; }   resources { "host": purge => 'true'; } and, instead of the expected: <real_ip> <fqdn> <hostname> <puppetserver_ip> puppet 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost we actually get: 127.0.0.1 <fqdn> <hostname> <real_ip> <fqdn> <hostname> <puppetserver_ip> puppet 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost As best I can tell, this is the parsed record for the first line being overwritten by the second because of a duplicate key - but I can't see where this is happening as the records seem to be in an array - possibly as a part of the records? method and its use in purge. It certainly feels like the first record isn't something that's being managed by puppet, and therefore in the purge case, it should be deleted.
