Jira (PUP-3042) If a catalog has a dependency cycle, it does not count as failed

[Henrik Lindberg (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Henrik Lindberg commented on PUP-3042   Re: If a catalog has a dependency cycle, it does not count as failed I tried to reproduce this with a site.pp containing the following: notify { "cycle ahead": } exec {'a': command => "/bin/echo a", require => 'Exec[b]' } exec {'b': command => "/bin/echo b", require => 'Exec[a]' } Then run an agent against the environment with that site.pp The output is: Error: Failed to apply catalog: Found 1 dependency cycle: (Exec[a] => Exec[b] => Exec[a]) Try the '--graph' option and opening the resulting '.dot' file in OmniGraffle or GraphViz and the exit status is: echo $? 1 Does this mean that the problem does not exist, or is it only for some types of circular dependencies that it occurs?
