Issue #5349 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.
No worries. On the plus side, we've immensely improved the cycle detection in 2.7 so it only shows you relevant information, and with the --graph option we produce a cycle graph for you so you can debug visually. ---------------------------------------- Bug #5349: Class inheritance and stages act weirdly https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5349 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.3 Keywords: Branch: Given the code: <pre> stage { "first": before => Stage[main] } class foo { package{"zsh": ensure => present } } class bar inherits foo { notify{"/usr/bin/cowsay 'hello world'": require => Package["zsh"] } } class{"bar": stage => "first"} </pre> This produce <pre> err: Could not apply complete catalog: Found dependency cycles in the following relationships: Package[zsh] => Notify[/usr/bin/cowsay 'hello world'], Notify[/usr/bin/cowsay 'hello world'] => Package[zsh], Notify[/usr/bin/cowsay 'hello world'] => Class[main]; try using the '--graph' option and open the '.dot' files in OmniGraffle or GraphViz </pre> If I add: <pre> class{"foo": stage => "first"} </pre> It sorts itself out. I am not sure what the correct behavior would be, at first I think we should just pull the inherited class into the 'first' stage as well but I can imagine that causing weird issues too? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
