===========================
### Windows Fixes
This release fixes several Windows bugs that couldn''t be targeted for
earlier 3.2 releases.
* [#20768: windows user provider can not manage password or home
directory](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20768) --- This was
a regression in 3.2.0/3.2.1.
* [#21043: setting in puppet.conf ignored on Windows in Puppet
3.2.1](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21043) --- This was a
regression in 3.2.0/3.2.1.
* [#16080: Service provider broken in Windows Server
2012](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16080) --- This affected
all previous Puppet versions.
* [#20787: ''puppet resource group'' takes incredibly long on
Windows](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20787) --- This
affected all previous Puppet versions.
* [#20302: Windows File.executable? now returns false on ruby
1.9](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20302)
* [#21280: Don''t create c:\dev\null in windows
specs](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21280) --- This was only
relevant to Puppet developers.
### Logging and Reporting Fixes
* [#20383: Bring back helpful error messages like prior to Puppet
3](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20383) --- This was a
regression from 3.0.0, which caused file names and line numbers to
disappear from duplicate resource declaration errors.
* [#20900: tagmail triggers in --onetime mode without changes after
upgrade from 3.1.1 to
3.2.1](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20900) --- This was a
regression in 3.2.0/3.2.1.
* [#20919: Logging behaviour issues in
3.2.1](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20919) --- This was a
regression in 3.2.0/3.2.1, which caused noisy logging to the console
even if the `--logdest` option was set.
### Performance Fixes
* [#21376: Stack level too deep after updating from 3.1.1 to
3.2.2](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21376) --- This would
sometimes cause total failures when importing a large number of
manifest files (such as with the `import nodes/*.pp` idiom).
* [#21320: Puppet daemon may sleep for 100 years after receiving USR1
on 64 bit systems](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21320) ---
MCollective''s Puppet plugin uses puppet agent''s USR1 signal to
trigger
a run if the agent is running; on 64-bit systems, this could cause
puppet agent to keep running, but stop doing scheduled configuration
runs. This was caused by a bug in Ruby \< 2.0, but we modified Puppet
to work around it.
* [#20901: `puppet --version` is unnecessarily
slow](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20901) --- This was a
regression in 3.2.0/3.2.1.
### Misc Fixes
* [#21264: parser = future breaks executing functions as class
defaults](https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21264)
