Hiera 1.3.2 release notes
---------------------------------------------------
Hiera 1.3.2 is a bug fix release in the 1.3 series. It adds packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, support for deploying to Solaris and Windows vCloud instances, and fixes a bug on Debian.


RHEL 7 Support

• HI-179: Add RHEL 7 support for Hiera packaging.
  

Bug Fixes

• HI-176: Hiera would fail to find the correct ruby binary on Debian when an alternative version was installed. Hiera now uses /usr/bin/ruby, which fixes the issue.
• HI-178: Acceptance tests have been added for Solaris and Windows vCloud machines.
• HI-115: Hiera would show an incorrect recursive_guard warning if the same variable was interpolated twice in a hierarchy definition, even if the usage was not recursive.
