Issue #21148 has been reported by Andrew Parker.
----------------------------------------
Bug #21148: 'puppet resource user' does not report the correct home directory
on Solaris
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21148
* Author: Andrew Parker
* Status: Accepted
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee:
* Category:
* Target version:
* Affected Puppet version:
* Keywords:
* Branch:
----------------------------------------
The `home` that is reported is `/home/username`, however, this value cannot be
used for managing the user or adding a user. This means that the output of
`puppet resource user` cannot be fed into `puppet apply` to recreate, or
enforce, that state.
