Relative Symlinks

[Douglas Garstang]

Is there any way to get relative symlinks in puppet?

This:

file {
"tomcat-current":
#"/opt/foo/apache-tomcat-current":
ensure => link,
target => "/opt/foo/apache-tomcat-${tomcat_version}";
}

yields:

Wed Mar 21 09:58:05 -0700 2012 Puppet (err): Failed to apply catalog:
Parameter path failed: File paths must be fully qualified, not
'tomcat-current' at
/etc/puppet/env/development/modules/tomcat7/manifests/server.pp:18

$ cat /tmp/symlink.pp
file { '/tmp/link_to_zz':
ensure => link,
target => 'zz',
}
$ puppet /tmp/symlink.pp
notice: /Stage[main]//File[/tmp/link_to_zz]/ensure: created
$ ls -l /tmp/link_to_zz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 cwood cwood 2 Mar 21 13:03 /tmp/link_to_zz -> zz

(ln target linkname)
