I responded in the Github pull request discussion. -Jeff ---------------------------------------- Bug #13682: Puppet should not conflict with released puppet-module Gem https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13682#change-60967 Author: Jeff McCune Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: compatibility Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.7.12 Keywords: constants ARTIFACTS puppet-module REPOSITORY_URL namespace Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/641 # Overview # The current behavior of Puppet 2.7.x (2.7.12-99-g8ceaaf0) declares some constants which conflicts with the already released puppet-module gem. Since the released gem requires Puppet, they fight with each other over these constants. # Impact data # All module authors are affected by this since they will need to do a knife-edge cut over from the existing module tool to Puppet 2.7.12, _or_ choose not to upgrade Puppet beyond 2.7.10. # Steps to reproduce # Use the existing puppet-module gem to build a package with Puppet 2.7.x. These conflicts become evident: <pre> /vagrant/src/puppet/lib/puppet/module_tool.rb:14: warning: already initialized constant ARTIFACTS /vagrant/src/puppet/lib/puppet/module_tool.rb:16: warning: already initialized constant REPOSITORY_URL </pre> I should be able to fix this quickly, so I'm assigning it to myself. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
