Bug #2263: Recursive file purging works poorly with no remote source
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2263

Author: Luke Kanies
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: Luke Kanies
Category: file
Target version: 0.25.0
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.24.8
Keywords: 


When doing recursive purging of a directory, Puppet considers a file to be 
managed if any attribute of it is specified.  This means that if you specify to 
recursively set a directory's owner but also to purge, the purge never happens 
because the owner attribute marks the discovered files as managed.

We've got a special case conditional to handle purging with a remote source, 
but this should actually cover both local and remote purging.

That is, if we are purging with no remote source, we should still not consider 
these discovered files to be managed. 

This is possibly related to #2220.
