Puppet 7.3.0
Released 20 January 2021.
New features
* New serverport setting type
The serverport setting is an alias for masterport. PUP-10725
Enhancements
* Multiple logdest locations in puppet.conf accepted
You can set multiple logdest locations using a comma separated list.
For example: /path/file1,console,/path/file2. PUP-10795
* The puppet module install command lists unsatisfiable dependencies
If the puppet module install command fails, Puppet returns a more
detailed error, including the unsatisfiable module(s) and its
ranges. PUP-9176
* New --no-legacy option to disable legacy facts
By default, puppet facts show displays all facts, including legacy
facts. This release adds a --no-legacy option to disable legacy facts
when querying all facts. PUP-10850
Resolved issues
* The puppet apply command creates warnings
This release eliminates Ruby 2.7.x warnings when running puppet apply
with node statements. PUP-10845
* Remove Pathname#cleanpath workaround
This release removes an unnecessary workaround when cleaning file paths,
as Ruby 1.9 is no longer supported. PUP-10840
* The allow * error message shown during PE upgrade
Puppet no longer prints an error if fileserver.conf contains allow *
rules. It continues to print an error for all other rules, as Puppet's
legacy authorization is no longer supported and is superseded by
Puppetserver's authorization. PUP-10851
* 3x functions cannot be called from deferred functions in Puppet agent
This release allows deferred 3.x functions, like sprintf, to be called
during a Puppet agent run. PUP-10819
* Cached catalog contains the result of deferred evaluation instead of the
deferred function
Puppet 6.12.0 introduced a regression that caused the result of a
deferred function to be stored in the cached catalog. As a result, an
agent running with a cached catalog would not re-evaluate the deferred
function. This is now fixed. PUP-10818
* puppet facts show fact output differs from facter fact
The output format is different between Facter and Puppet facts when a
query for a single fact is provided. This is now fixed. PUP-10847
* Issue with Puppet creating production folder when multiple environment
paths are set
Previously, the production environment folder was automatically created
at every Puppet ran in the first search path, if it did not already
exist. This release ensures Puppet searches all the given paths before
creating a new production environment folder. PUP-10842
Puppet 7.2.0
