Issue #3453 has been updated by Miguel Filho. Status changed from Needs More Information to Duplicate
---------------------------------------- Bug #3453: puppet client silently ignores symlinks https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3453#change-75237 Author: Nick Moffitt Status: Duplicate Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: file Target version: Affected Puppet version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: While going through an example that generates /etc/motd from a template, I noticed that it was giving me no feedback other than that it was applying a configuration version, and that my motd was not changing. Upon running debug, I noticed: debug: //File[/etc/motd]/checksum: Not checksumming symlink Because on Ubuntu systems the motd is a symlink to /var/run/motd (which includes status information about your system's updates etc). This caught me completely by surprise, and at least some better reporting of the sudden noop would be helpful here. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
