This looks like the output returned when calling to_s on a hash. I spent a few minutes digging and came up with Puppet::Resource#to_manifest in 2.7.0 its around line: 267 267 if v.is_a? Array 268 " %-#{attr_max}s => %s,\n" % [ k, "[\'#{v.join("', '")}\']" ] 269 else 270 " %-#{attr_max}s => %s,\n" % [ k, "\'#{v}\'" ] 271 end There probably needs to be some code that says how to correctly output a hash > - Carl > (615) 653-0887 > > > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
