Bug #14531: Puppet doesn't create symlinks when just using 'target => 
/path/to/file'
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14531#change-65255

Author: Jos Boumans
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Stefan Schulte
Category: 
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.16
Keywords: 
Branch: 


Consider the following code:


    
    $ ls -al /mnt/tmp/{x,test}
    ls: cannot access /mnt/tmp/test: No such file or directory
    -rw-r--r-- 1 jib users 3 May  4 23:35 /mnt/tmp/x
    $ cat z.pp
    file { '/mnt/tmp/test':
    target => '/mnt/tmp/x',
    }
    $ sudo puppet apply z.pp
    notice: /Stage[main]//File[/mnt/tmp/test]/ensure: created
    notice: Finished catalog run in 3.56 seconds
    $ ls -al /mnt/tmp/{x,test}
    ls: cannot access /mnt/tmp/test: No such file or directory
    -rw-r--r-- 1 jib users 3 May  4 23:35 /mnt/tmp/x
    
Changing 'target' to 'ensure' works around the issue.
