Puppet users - Oct 2013 - tidy: Could not back up files of type socket

Hello,

I am using puppet tidy to clean up my /tmp directory
as described here:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/puppet-users/bg6GzDVDR-k/ELj8eeGI2F8J

tidyup:
  /tmp:
     age: ''4w''
     backup: ''false''
     recurse: ''true''

Puppet throws errors when it encounters a socket instead of a regular file 
or directory.

change from socket to absent failed: Could not back up files of type socket

I see some old discussions regarding this, but I haven''t found a clear 
solution.  I don''t want to back up the sockets and have specified
''false''
as you can see above.  What is the best way to deal with the sockets and 
eliminate these errors?

Thanks in advance,
Derek
