Issue #18534 has been reported by Josh Cooper. ---------------------------------------- Bug #18534: Warn when multiple versions of the same module are available in the modulepath https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18534
Author: Josh Cooper Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: The module tool tries to prevent multiple versions of the same module from being installed. But there are lots of ways that you can end up in that state, such as by installing a module using a specific modulepath (puppet module install --modulepath dirA) Then if the master is configured to use multiple modulepaths, modulepath=dirA:dirB, you can easily end up with multiple versions of the same module. This can cause unexpected breakage if the version in dirA is incompatible with respect to the one in dirB, especially when the module, e.g. stdlib, is a dependency shared by multiple modules.. See #18525. One simple thing to assist debugging this situation would be to issue a warning on the master if there are multiple versions of the same module accessible in its modulepath. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
