Issue #9143 has been updated by Clay Caviness.
So "future proof" is maybe not exactly right, but I'd prefer to have puppet assume that future OSes would have the same functionality as current ones, rather than e.g. marking 10.6 as special and then failing when 10.7 comes out and works the same as 10.6. ---------------------------------------- Bug #9143: macauthorization provider fails on OS X 10.7 (Lion) https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9143 Author: Clay Caviness Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Gary Larizza Category: OSX Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: $ puppet resource macauthorization --debug --evaltrace debug: Puppet::Type::Macauthorization::ProviderMacauthorization: Executing '/usr/bin/sw_vers -productVersion' debug: Puppet::Type::Macauthorization::ProviderMacauthorization: false value when expecting true Could not run: Could not find a default provider for macauthorization This is another instance where there an OS X version check. Line 23 of macauthorization.rb (http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/repository/revisions/master/entry/lib/puppet/provider/macauthorization/macauthorization.rb#L23): confine :true => if /^10.5/.match(product_version) or /^10.6/.match(product_version This is not future proof. Exact same issue as http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8375 The provider will work on 10.7, if enabled. After manually tweaking macauthorization.rb: $ puppet resource macauthorization system.preferences --debug --evaltrace debug: Puppet::Type::Macauthorization::ProviderMacauthorization: Executing '/usr/bin/sw_vers -productVersion' macauthorization { 'system.preferences': ensure => 'present', allow_root => 'true', auth_class => 'user', auth_type => 'right', comment => 'Checked by the Admin framework when making changes to certain System Preferences.', group => 'admin', shared => 'true', } I'm using Mac OS X 10.7.1, Puppet 2.7.3. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
