Bug #6487: directoryservice provider will fail in future OS releases
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6487

Author: Clay Caviness
Status: Closed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: OSX
Target version: 2.6.9
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.4
Keywords: 
Branch: 


There are two case statements in directoryservice.rb that only match 10.4, 
10.5, and 10.6. Future OSes (e.g. 10.7) will fail completely.

<pre>
238         case self.get_macosx_version_major
239         when "10.4"
240           dscl_plist = self.parse_dscl_url_data(dscl_output)
241         when "10.5", "10.6"
242           dscl_plist = self.parse_dscl_plist_data(dscl_output)
243         end
</pre>
and
<pre>
260         case self.get_macosx_version_major
261         when "10.4"
262           command_vector = [ command(:dscl), "-url", "." ]
263         when "10.5", "10.6"
264           command_vector = [ command(:dscl), "-plist", "." ]
265         end
</pre>

Probably the best method here is to default to the most recent, or at least 
raise some sort of error. As is, command_vector will be unset  causing 
cascading failures elsewhere.
