Issue #19718 has been reported by Mike Power. ---------------------------------------- Bug #19718: Puppet seems to create backwards dependency resulting in cyclic dependencies https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19718
Author: Mike Power Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: dependency cycle Branch: I have used someone's archive plugin to 1) download apache 2) ensure that webapps is present 3) download jenkins into webapps naturally jenkins depends on webapps webapps is made to depend on apache apache depends are created by the archive plugin archive plugin makes apache depend on the curl package. That all makes sense. However puppet picks up a really odd dependency that says package curl depends on jenkins. I can't find where in the archive plugin this might be done. It does not look like I did it. So it seems like puppet. Let me know if I am wrong. I created a sample project at: https://github.com/dodtsair/puppet-cyclicdependency It is a bit dodgy. On my proprietary project if I add a package { "curl":} right next to the archive::download call. Just sitting next to each other. The cycle goes away. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
