----------------------------------------
Bug #6553: handling of array values in exec provider is inconsistent.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6553
Author: Daniel Pittman
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Nigel Kersten
Category: exec
Target version: 2.6.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.5
Keywords: wtf
Branch:
In the `exec` provider we handle arrays as arguments inconsistently:
exec { "foo": timeout => [1] } # works
exec { "foo": tries => [1] } # boom!
We should make a call on which of these two is desired, then implement it. If
necessary a deprecation period might be needed to ensure that we don't surprise
anyone using this (unintuitive) features.
Oh, and:
exec { "foo": timeout => [1,2,3] } # guess which one we use?
