Issue #650 has been updated by Markus Roberts. Status changed from Accepted to Needs design decision
Earlier discussions of this and similar issues seemed to stall on security concerns, though I'm not at the moment recalling the details. In any case, we certainly haven't moved on it in the two+ years since it was accepted. We should probably either do it or document the reason we are not doing it rather than leaving it in accepted but never acted on limbo. ---------------------------------------- Bug #650: puppet replaces configuration directories when they are symlinks http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/650 Author: Karl Pietri Status: Needs design decision Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: settings Target version: Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.7 Keywords: Branch: <pre> [k...@testserver etc]$ sudo ls -l | grep puppet lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 May 30 05:36 puppet -> /home/karl/puppet/etc/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 15 05:03 puppet.old [k...@testserver etc]$ sudo service puppetmaster start Starting puppetmaster: Can not use a non-existent file for parsing [FAILED] [k...@testserver etc]$ sudo ls -l | grep puppet drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 30 05:36 puppet drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 15 05:03 puppet.old </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
