Bug #8273: help face fails if it finds an option that does not have
documentation
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8273
Author: Dan Bode
Status: Unreviewed

Category: Faces
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.0
Keywords:
Branch:
Although faces should provide sufficient documentation, there are times when
they will not.
It appears that any face option without either a summary of description fails
with the following error:

I have tracked it down to the following code from around line 73 of
lib/puppet/face/help/man.erb
<pre>
72 <% unique_options.sort.each do |name|
73 option = action.get_option name
74 text = option.description || option.summary -%>
75 <%= '<' + option.optparse.join("> | <") + '>' %> -
76 <%= text.gsub(/^/, ' ') %>
77 <% end -%>
</pre>
