Issue #18677 has been updated by Peter Meier.
This is quite a nasty one and happening a lot if you want to use the arrow operators. I thought this have already been reported in another bug report. It looks like the relevant part is in: #7422 - Could you please verify that (has it been fixed?) and also report the affected version? Thanks! Another candidate is: #15117 ---------------------------------------- Bug #18677: Resource chain operators conflict uncleanly with inline metaparameter specification https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18677#change-81520 Author: Reid Vandewiele Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: language Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Consider the following Puppet code as "example1.pp": notify { 'serenity': } notify { 'firefly': } notify { 'alliance': notify => Notify['serenity'] } Notify['alliance'] ~> Notify['firefly'] Running `puppet apply example1.pp` produces the following output: undefined method `<<' for {}:Hash on node pseudonix.local Similarly, "example2.pp": notify { 'serenity': } notify { 'firefly': } notify { 'alliance': before => Notify['serenity'] } Notify['alliance'] -> Notify['firefly'] The same output is produced: undefined method `<<' for {}:Hash on node pseudonix.local This is buggy behavior. Ideally when there is a conflict the behavior should be additive. At the end of day in example1.pp there should exist notify relationships such that 'alliance' notifies 'serenity' AND 'alliance' notifies 'firefly'. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
