Charlie Sharpsteen commented on an issue   Re: Due to prefetching, Yumrepo clobbers any definition that it does not create This is still an issue under Puppet 3.7.1. Reproduction steps for CentOS 6.5: 1. Add the Puppetlabs yum repos and install Puppet: # yum install -y http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm # yum install -y puppet 2. Run the following manifest: # This is required by the 'epel-release' package and thus triggers a prefetch # of Yumrepo resources before the package lays down the EPEL definitions. yumrepo {'puppetlabs-products': enabled => 1m }   package {'epel-release': ensure => present, provider => rpm, source => 'http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm', require => Yumrepo['puppetlabs-products'], }   # When this synchs, it will nuke /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo yumrepo {'epel': enabled => '1', failovermethod => 'priority', priority => '3', require => Package['epel-release'], } After Puppet runs, /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo will be severely truncated: # cat /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo [epel] enabled=1 failovermethod=priority priority=3 The testcase may be reset by removing the epel-release package: yum remove -y epel-release Add Comment   Puppet / PUP-723 Due to prefetching, Yumrepo clobbers any definition that it does not create Yumrepo appears to be checking file existence before allowing the package command to complete, meaning that it creates a file containing only "[remi]" and "enabled=1", overwriting the file that the RPM installed. Manifests, additional debug output, etc., available upon request. Just tell me what you need to know. Workarounds especially welcomed. Pup...
