What version is this? ---------------------------------------- Bug #4806: file-resource: useless autorequire http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4806 Author: Benedikt Köppel Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected version: Keywords: Branch: file-ressource: useless autorequire when ensure => absent I have a file resource like that: <pre> file { '/home/$user': owner => $user, ensure => $ensure } </pre> with $user and $ensure filled by a define "account" When I now set account { 'beni': ensure => absent }, puppet still generates a autorequire => User['beni'], even though the file /home/beni doesn't need that user. A workaround is this: <pre> file { '/home/$user': owner => $ensure ? { present => $user, absent => [] } ensure => $ensure } </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
