[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#612894: puppet: Syntax validation with --parseonly is broken when used with --ignoreimport

[Paul Elliott]

Package: puppet
Version: 2.6.2-4
Severity: normal


It no longer appears possible to perform syntax checking in post-commit hooks when using puppet --parseonly and --ignoreimport due to upstream bug #5081:

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5081

The issue is fixed in 2.6.5 according to the upstream report.
