Not ab augeas expert but IIRC what I did in a similar situation is force
puppet/augeas to point to only one file.
Try adding "context," "incl," and "lens" to your augeas definition, like
the example below. By specifying the lens, I think it helps speed up the
augeas type also. At least I read that somewhere. :)
augeas { 'selinux_config':
context => '/files/etc/selinux/config',
incl => '/etc/selinux/config',
lens => 'Shellvars.lns',
changes => "set SELINUX ${selinux_state}",
}
If I need to customize a lens, I stick it in /usr/share/augeas/lenses and
manage it with puppet. I leave the lenses in /dist/ alone.
