---------------------------------------- Bug #11988: Augeas provider can clobber symlinks https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11988#change-88517 * Author: Nathan Huff * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Deepak Giridharagopal * Category: augeas * Target version: 2.7.12 * Affected Puppet version: 2.7.9 * Keywords: augeas customer * Branch: ---------------------------------------- If the augeas resource is fed a symlink as the target file and it makes changes it will overwrite it with a regular file. It creates and .augnew file and just blindly moves it into place without checking if the target file was a symlink. The provider should either check whether the target was a symlink and dereference it or it should rerun augeas in overwrite mode since augeas does take care to dereference if necessary. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
