I believe this to be because gid= is not called when creating a new user due to the prefetch approach. I have a couple of options for patches both of which seem to achieve the correct result, but (being new to the internals of puppet), I'm not sure whether I've "fixed" the problem in the best place, or whether there is somewhere more appropriate. I've cloned the repo and will be pushing my patches to github under two different branches for you to compare/comment/rip to shreds/suggest improvements etc. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
