Jira (PUP-10317) hiera-eyaml should print helpful error message when decryption fails

[Alexander Fisher (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Alexander Fisher created an issue   Puppet / PUP-10317 hiera-eyaml should print helpful error message when decryption fails Issue Type: New Feature Affects Versions: PUP 6.13.0 Assignee: Unassigned Components: Hiera & Lookup Created: 2020/02/27 1:09 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Alexander Fisher Currently, if decryption in a backend fails, it is non obvious where the problem originates. For example, when using hiera-eyaml-gpg, with multiple keys you might get failed with: gpg: decryption failed: No secret key if hiera is trying to decrypt part of the hierarchy it doesn't have the private key for.  See https://github.com/voxpupuli/hiera-eyaml-gpg/issues/41 hiera-eyaml is a bit of an odd one in that https://github.com/voxpupuli/hiera-eyaml is the gem with most of the decryption code and support for multiple decryption plugins.  But the entry point for hiera 5 lookups is lib/puppet/functions/eyaml_lookup_key.rb in core puppet and this is where changes to improve logging would have to be made.
