Issue #11988 has been updated by Moses Mendoza. Status changed from Merged - Pending Release to Closed
released in 2.7.12 <http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Release_Notes#2.7.12> ---------------------------------------- Bug #11988: Augeas provider can clobber symlinks https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11988#change-56572 Author: Nathan Huff Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Deepak Giridharagopal Category: augeas Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.7.9 Keywords: augeas Branch: If the augeas resource is fed a symlink as the target file and it makes changes it will overwrite it with a regular file. It creates and .augnew file and just blindly moves it into place without checking if the target file was a symlink. The provider should either check whether the target was a symlink and dereference it or it should rerun augeas in overwrite mode since augeas does take care to dereference if necessary. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
