Issue #21478 has been updated by Richard Stevenson. File plymouth-ready.conf added
Excluding is fine for me in this circumstance. For completeness, and if you're interested, here's the relavent conf file. It's worth pointing out that if ubuntu are going to add new upstart services to LTS releases through upgrades to existing packages there's no guarantee that it won't happen again. I'd suggest that it might be worth having puppet tolerate the output of status a little better, and output the rest of the manifest that it did manage to create in the case of unexpected output. ---------------------------------------- Bug #21478: Puppet fails on plymouth-ready https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21478#change-93730 * Author: Richard Stevenson * Status: Unreviewed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 3.2.2 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- The command "puppet resource service" fails with the error "Error: Could not run: Execution of '/sbin/status plymouth-ready' returned 1: status: Unknown parameter: UPSTART_EVENTS". This occurs when puppet 3.2.2-1puppetlabs1 is run on Ubuntu 12.04.2, with the updated plymouth package, version 0.2.2-2ubuntu31.1 installed, but not with older versions of the plymouth package. This appears to be due to the newly added /etc/init/plymouth-ready.conf file, introduced in response to this ubuntu bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/982889). When its status is requested with "status plymouth-ready", it fails with a familiar "status: Unknown parameter: UPSTART_EVENTS". I reported this on the ubuntu launchpad here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1194971), but was informed that this is desired behaviour for jobs that have an instance, and that the bug is with puppet. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
