Bug #6513: Settings code does not propagate environment
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6513
Author: Markus Roberts
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Category: settings
Target version:
Affected Puppet version:

Branch:
The code in settings does not always propagate the environment, creating
situations in which inconsistent results can be produced. A simple (albeit
highly contrived) example, given:
test.conf
<pre>
[master]
rrddir = /var/lib/puppet/rrd
templatedir = /var/lib/puppet/templates
[env_a]
templatedir = $rrddir/templates
rrddir = /tmp/env_a/
</pre>
the command:
<pre>
RUBYLIB=lib bin/puppet master --config ./test.conf --environment env_a
--configprint templatedir
</pre>
produces "/var/lib/puppet/rrd/templates" instead of the expected
"/tmp/env_a/templates"
This was independently discovered by Jacob Helwig & Seth Samuel by code
inspection; there are no known reports of it in the wild.
