Bug #13204: Augeas save under /boot causes no such file or directory errror
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13204

Author: Dominic Cleal
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Low
Assignee: Dominic Cleal
Category: augeas
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.12rc2
Keywords: 
Branch: 


The following snippet generates an error:

    augeas { "grub":
      context => "/files/boot/grub/menu.lst",
      changes => "set timeout 3",
    }
    
    err: /Stage[main]//Augeas[grub]: Could not evaluate: No such file or 
directory - 
/home/dcleal/code/puppet/augeas-examples/fakeroot/boot/grub/menu.lst.augnew

/boot/grub/menu.lst is a symlink to /boot/grub/grub.conf.

Root cause was due to bug [#264](https://fedorahosted.org/augeas/ticket/264) in 
Augeas, which caused it to return the saved path twice from 
/augeas/events/saved.

Because Puppet loops around this in 2.7.x, diffing and unlinking the new files, 
it errors on the second iteration.  Since this happens in need_to_run?, no 
changes are made.

As a workaround, edit via /files/etc/grub.conf or /files/boot/grub/grub.conf 
(with lens/incl) instead of /files/boot/grub/menu.lst.
