## Puppet 2.7.15rc4 Release Notes ##

(#14761) Add boot, reboot to excludes list for redhat provider

    On sles, the reboot init script would be triggered during a `puppet resource
    service` call, which would ignore the status argument and proceed
to reboot the
    system. It would also call the boot init script, which could hang the puppet
    call indefinitely. This commit adds both the boot and reboot services to the
    redhat provider''s exclude list. It also updates the redhat
provider spec test
    to test for those changes.

(#14615) Exclude helperscripts in gentoo service provider

    The directory `/etc/init.d` does not only store normal initscripts but
    also a few helper scripts (like `functions.sh`). The former behaviour was
    to treat them as regular initscripts which can lead to dangerous results
    especially when running `puppet resource service`. This command will
    issue `/etc/init.d/<script> status` on every script inside
    `/etc/init.d`. Because the helperscripts don''t care about
arguments,
    this will cause the system to reboot when `/etc/init.d/reboot.sh status` is
    executed.

    Exclude helperscripts when searching inside `/etc/init.d`.
