[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#500852: Tidy must specify size, age, or both

[Jayen Ashar]

Package: puppet
Version: 0.24.4-8~bpo40+1
Severity: wishlist

this entry in my manifest:
  tidy {
    "/c/z3208682/test_tidy":
    matches => "README.desktop",
    recurse => true,
    require => [ File["/etc/kde-profile"], File["/etc/kderc"]];
  }

gives this error:
Thu Oct 02 10:31:49 +1000 2008 Puppet (err): Could not create /c/z3208682/test_tidy/z3208682/Desktop/README.desktop: Tidy must specify size, age, or both
Thu Oct 02 10:31:49 +1000 2008 //Node[default]/staff/staff_readme/Tidy[/c/z3208682/test_tidy/z3208682/Desktop] (notice): Cannot manage: Tidy must specify size, age, or both

adding "size => 0" works, but it seems annoying to have to do.
