Issue #22129 has been updated by Dustin Mitchell.
elsif checksum?(value)
# XXX This is potentially dangerous because it means users can't write
a file whose
# entire contents are a plain checksum
that's evil

----------------------------------------
This is another problem blocking successful use of puppet on OS X. In our
case, we're editing /etc/kcpasswd, which is a binary file. The reproduction is
# echo $'\xa1' > /tmp/x
# cat foo.pp
file { "/tmp/y":
content => file("/tmp/x"); # contains "\xa1\n"
}
# puppet apply foo.pp
Error: Parameter content failed on File[/tmp/y]: Munging failed for value
"\xA1\n" in class content: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII at
/private/var/root/foo.pp:3
although within my manifests, where the value comes from extlookup, I get
Error: Failed to apply catalog: Parameter content failed on
File[/etc/kcpassword]: Munging failed for value "..elided.." in class content:
invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 at
/etc/puppet/environments/dmitchell/env/modules/users/manifests/builder/autologin.pp:16
(note the difference in encoding).
