[Puppet Users] Windows Package With Title Containing Square Brackets
Hi, We're trying to install a package but the title has got square brackets which seems to make Puppet blow up, for example: package { "Windows Server AppFabric v1.1 CU4 [KB 2800726]": ensure => installed, source => $fullInstallerPath, install_options => $install_options, } Trying to run this results in error "invalid tag". We've tried escaping the brackets but that doesn't work either. Even running puppet resource form the command prompt gives an error: C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin>puppet resource package Error: Could not run: Invalid tag "microsoft sql server 2005 compact edition " The actual title in control panel for is "microsoft sql server 2005 compact edition [ENU]". It would seem resource titles with square brackets cause issues. Is this is a bug in Puppet? Can anyone suggest a work around as this kind of renders Puppet not very useful for us without being able to install products.
