Puppet 2.7.14rc1 is a maintenance release candidate for Puppet in the
2.7.x series.
This release is on the heels of Puppet 2.7.13 because our regular
monthly release for April got preempted by our security release.
Downloads are available:

## Community MVP for this release: Dominic Cleal for
#11988 and #13204 - Augeas provider improvements
## Puppet 2.7.14rc1 Highlights ##
## Features ##
Puppet Module Tool Face - the module tool has seen a host of
improvements including dependency resolution, environment handling,
and searching the forge. There are more details available at
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/modules_installing.html
## Bug Fixes ##
Better warnings about scoping
Make new scoping look through inherited scopes
Previous to this commit, Puppet would look through a given scope
hierarchy and give deprecation warnings when a value was found in either
an inherited class scope or included class scope, when it should only
give the warning in the case of the included class scope.
This commit makes the new-scope behavior also examine inherited scopes,
though continuing to ignore included scopes.
Implement newlookupvar() to replace dynamic scope
lookupvar() is shifted to oldlookupvar() and newlookupvar() is added. An
intermediary lookupvar() function will query both and if the answer
varies then it will throw a deprecation warning for dynamic scoping. The
intermediary and old lookup functions may be removed at a later date,
thus completing the transition.
A test case has been introduced to detect dynamic scoping and the
deprecation warning. Slight modifications to the spec test scoping
objects were made to bring them more in line with the real world.
All scope tests pass. When oldlookupvar is replaced, the deprecated
dynamic scoping test case will fail and all other scope test cases will
pass.
Augeas Improvements
(#11988) Work around Augeas reload bug when changing save modes
After saving a file in one save mode and switching to another,
Augeas realise
to reload the file when Augeas#load is called again. Work around this by
explicitly reloading all files we saved while using the first save mode.
(#11988) Don''t overwrite symlinks in augeas provider
Previously, if not running with `force` set, we would try to write the
file in SAVE_NEWFILE mode to create a <filename>.augnew file with the
changes. We determined whether there were changes to be made based on
that file (and used it to show a diff). When it came time to actually
make the changes, we would simply move the .augnew file over the file
being managed. Unfortunately, if the file being managed were a symlink,
this would clobber it.
There was a fallback path in the case of force (or older versions of
augeas not supporting SAVE_NEWFILE) in which we would make the
changes in SAVE_OVERWRITE mode as normal. Now, the behavior is a
combination of the two; we still use SAVE_NEWFILE to determine whether
changes need to be made and to show a diff, but then remove the .augnew
file and always run again in SAVE_OVERWRITE mode to save the changes.
This effectively delegates the behavior of preserving the file, etc.
to augeas, so we don''t duplicate effort or bugs.
(#13204) Don''t ignore missing PATH.augnew files
The original fix for #13204 may have masked other potential bugs if the
PATH.augnew file was missing. It simply tested for the file
existance and not
only when duplicate save events occurred.
This change de-duplicates the list of save events instead, so if a
bug appeared
where PATH.augnew was genuinely missing, the error wouldn''t be
squashed.
(#13204) Workaround duplicate Augeas save events
Bug #264 in Augeas causes duplicate save events to be returned when editing
under /boot in newfile mode. Because we loop around these events,
diffing and
unlinking the files, this causes an ENOENT error when we process
the same event
twice.
This commit checks that the file we intend to operate on exists.
(#7592) Remove redundant call to String#to_s
Previously, the augeas provider made calls like the following:
@aug.get(key).to_s
Since the Augeas#get method returns a String not an array, the to_s
call is redundant. (Note the #match method does return an array.)
The augeas tests were stubbing the #get method to return an array in
some places (and a string in others). Prior to 1.9.2, ruby will
automatically convert ["foo"].to_s to "foo", so
everything worked as
expected. However, under 1.9.2, ["foo"].to_s becomes
"[\"foo\"]".
These failures weren''t noticed earlier, because our
1.9.2@allFeatures
jenkins nodes do not have ruby-augeas installed. In other words, tests
that require Puppet.features.augeas? were never running in
Jenkins. The recent change to improve augeas testing, removed the
dependency on this feature being installed, so these tests started
failing.
This commit just removes the redundant call to String#to_s, and
updates the spec tests to match what the Augeas#get method really
returns.
Zypper Provider Improvements
(#8312) Fix zypper provider so ensure => ''latest''
now works
Previously the regular expression to match the correct column from
''zypper list-updates'' was wrong, it seems to have been
based on the command
''zypper packages'' instead. This was caused ensure =>
''latest'' to fail as the
provider couldn''t adequately figure out what newer versions were
actually
availabe.
So I''ve fixed the regular expression (based on Felix
Frank''s
patch) and updated
the spec test so that it uses the real output from zypper
list-updates and now
references an external spec file, as apposed to referencing the
content inline.
Windows Bugfixes
(#12392) Created Windows eventlog message resource dll
This commit adds the ability to build a message resource dll used to
display localized eventlog messages on Windows. Windows eventlog expects
that each log event has a unique id, which can then be localized in a
resource dll, one for each locale. However, puppet does not yet support
this, see #11076. So this commit defines three puppet event ids
corresponding to the three levels of Windows events that we support
(info, warn, and error).
In order to build the dll, you need the Windows SDK installed that
contains the mc, rc, and link utilities.
(Maint) Don''t assume eventlog gem is installed on Windows
Previously, the test would fail when run on a Windows box that
didn''t
have the eventlog gem installed. Since the Windows agent should be able
to run without the gem installed, and fall back to writing to a log
file, this commit changes the test to only run when the gem is
installed. There is already a test that verifies that we fall back if
the eventlog feature is not available.
