Re: Puppet should not reset locale when executing child processes

I'm going to close this as won't fix, because the postgresql module was updated a long time ago to pass override_locale: true. I think puppet is doing the correct thing, since in general we need to be able to execute commands and parse its output in a way that isn't sensitive to the locale we're running in. However, in cases where puppet calls out to make changes to the system such as starting a service or installing a database, then it's up to the provider to tell puppet not to use the C locale.
