Issue #14360 has been updated by Michael Bacon.
I'd like to re-open this with more information.
The capital X symbolic mode appears to do the wrong thing regardless of whether
it's an individual file or a recursive directory:
Before puppet run:
$ ls -lR testperms.*
-r--r--r--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:38 testperms.444.gX
-r--r--r--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:39 testperms.644.gX
testperms.dir.755.gX:
total 0
-r--r--r--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:38 testperms.444.gX
-r--r--r--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:39 testperms.644.gX
Puppet code:
file { '/tmp/testperms.444.gX':
mode => 'g+X',
}
file { '/tmp/testperms.644.gX':
mode => 'g+X',
}
file { '/tmp/testperms.dir.755.gX':
mode => 'g+X',
recurse => true,
}
After puppet run:
$ ls -lR testperms.*
-r--r-xr--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:38 /tmp/testperms.444.gX
-r--r-xr--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:39 /tmp/testperms.644.gX
testperms.dir.755.gX:
total 0
-r--r-xr--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:42 testperms.444.gX
-rw-r-xr--. 1 XXX XXX 0 Aug 1 11:42 testperms.644.gX
Please re-open this case.
----------------------------------------
Bug #14360: Symbolic modes mis-handle the capital X option.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14360#change-95848
* Author: Trevor Vaughan
* Status: Needs More Information
* Priority: Normal

* Category: file
* Target version:
* Affected Puppet version: 2.7.13
* Keywords: file, symbolic mode
* Branch:
----------------------------------------
Setting the mode on a directory to recursively be 'u+rwX,g+rX,o-rwx' causes the
execute bit to be flipped on for the files under the directory.
The Capital X option should only add execute permissions if the object is a
directory.
