Please see my comments in the pull request, but basically I can't merge it until the merge commits are cleaned up from inside your topic branch. The example git commands should help get a new pull request submitted quickly. -Jeff ---------------------------------------- Bug #11042: Inconsistent translation of group names to numbers when creating users in ldap https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11042#change-74660 Author: Neil Hemingway Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Neil Hemingway Category: LDAP Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.7.1 Keywords: LDAP provider user group Branch: Puppet::Provider::User::Ldap translates group names to numbers when modifying an existing user (using gid=), but not when creating a new one. I believe this to be because gid= is not called when creating a new user due to the prefetch approach. I have a couple of options for patches both of which seem to achieve the correct result, but (being new to the internals of puppet), I'm not sure whether I've "fixed" the problem in the best place, or whether there is somewhere more appropriate. I've cloned the repo and will be pushing my patches to github under two different branches for you to compare/comment/rip to shreds/suggest improvements etc. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
