[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#502163: filename can't handle ++

[Jayen Ashar]

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

I've got a manifest with this:
class ccrc_google_earth {
 file {
  "/usr/local/google-earth":
  source => "puppet:///files/ccrc/usr/local/google-earth",
  recurse => inf;
  "/usr/local/bin/googleearth":
  source => "puppet:///files/ccrc/usr/local/bin/googleearth",
  recurse => inf;
 }
}

and a file like this:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 871596 2008-10-14 15:18 /etc/puppet/files/ccrc/usr/local/google-earth/libstdc++.so.6

and it gives an error like this:
Tue Oct 14 16:11:54 +1100 2008 Puppet (err): Could not call: nested *?+ in regexp: /^\/etc\/puppet\/files\/ccrc\/usr\/local\/google-earth\/libstdc++.so.6/
