>> Is there any chance that you have *too new* an Hiera installed?
I was actually worried at first that there was a regression in terms of
what hiera was on there given the host was "patched" recently. I may have
found the problem and yes I suspected right along the issue was on the
remote master not the client. (well except for a brief moment in time at
around 6AM the installation starting at midnight... I was a bit foggy then.)
I'm deploying a "fix" and if it works I'm going to post as much here.
