Bug #18460: OSX user provider when used in "puppet resource" does not show
correct values

Affected Puppet version: 3.0.2
Keywords: osx, provider, user
Branch:
When the user type is used in "puppet resource" on OSX the output after making
a change is the state of the user *before* the change was made rather than
*after*. This is different from my expectation and also different from what the
provider on an Ubuntu system does.
Creating the user initially provides some of the information:
<pre>
Puppets-Mac:~ development$ sudo puppet resource user puppet ensure=present
gid=puppet shell='/sbin/nologin'
Notice: /User[puppet]/shell: defined 'shell' as '/sbin/nologin'
user { 'puppet':
ensure => 'present',
gid => '495',
}
</pre>
Then running the same command again provides all of the information:
<pre>
Puppets-Mac:~ development$ sudo puppet resource user puppet ensure=present
gid=puppet shell='/sbin/nologin'
user { 'puppet':
ensure => 'present',
gid => '495',
shell => '/sbin/nologin',
}
</pre>
Making a change shows the change was made (/sbin/nologin => /bin/bash), but
doesn't show the change in the printed resource
<pre>
Puppets-Mac:~ development$ sudo puppet resource user puppet ensure=present
gid=puppet shell='/sbin/bash'
Notice: /User[puppet]/shell: shell changed '/sbin/nologin' to '/bin/bash'
user { 'puppet':
ensure => 'present',
gid => '495',
shell => '/sbin/nologin',
}
</pre>
However, running it again will show the changed value.
<pre>
Puppets-Mac:~ development$ sudo puppet resource user puppet ensure=present
gid=puppet shell='/bin/bash'
user { 'puppet':
ensure => 'present',
gid => '495',
shell => '/bin/bash',
}
</pre>
It appears that the provider is not doing something right in order for the
updated resource to be shown to the user. The user provider for Ubuntu was
tried out and it will immediately (without needing to run a second time) show
the updated values.
This has been tried on 3.0.2 and 3.1.0-rc1. Found during exploratory testing of
3.1.0-rc1
