Issue #11860 has been updated by Matthaus Litteken.
So my concern with it being backported into 2.7.x is stated in the ticket by Chris above <https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11860#note-8> What level of checking has happened against existing providers or commonly used additional providers? My concern with backporting to 2.6.x is that 2.6.x no longer gets regular releases. It's essentially a dead branch except that it gets security fixes. So any code that got into 2.6.x would have no rc series to vet it before release (because security issues are what trigger 2.6 releases now, and they don't get rc) and no guarantee of release ever. ---------------------------------------- Bug #11860: Puppet ovewriting the LANG environment variable. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11860#change-60628 Author: Marek Kroemeke Status: Merged - Pending Release Priority: Urgent Assignee: Chris Price Category: exec Target version: Telly Affected Puppet version: 2.7.0 Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/414 As far as I can see puppet is changing system's LANG environment variable - this causes unexpected bahaviour of applications that use this setting (as LANG is different when you run /etc/init.d/foo stop/start/restart, and different when service is restarted by puppet!). -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
