Issue #7680 has been updated by Jeroen Meeuwen.
I can confirm this problem still exists in 2.6.13, and the suggested fix from Emanuel Rietveld in comment #6 actually resolves my immediate issue - I'm not sure that fix will cause the original issue this piece of code to be applied to re-appear though. ---------------------------------------- Bug #7680: Checksum missmatch when copying followed symlinks https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7680 Author: Mikael Svantesson Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.8 Keywords: symlink file Branch: When trying to copy a file (using a symlink), Puppet does not calculate the correct checksum for the temporary file.
