And since that's the default, you might as well say using checksum breaks file resources, since if you use it at all to override "md5", you always get a mis-match because the server only does md5. For example: file { "chroot-20070718.tar": ensure => present, path => "${release_account::redhat::home}/chroot-20070718.tar", source => "/root/puppet/modules/release_account/files/chroots/${::osfamily}/chroot-20070718.tar", checksum => sha256lite, } Results in: Notice: /Stage[main]/Release_account::Redhat::Chroot/File[chroot-20070718.tar]/content: current_value {sha256lite}3b155333d1cb1ed4e96f791c16dda06d95c47ded1b206240ed61c2c09f1426ba, should be {md5}d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e (noop) Note that client-side checksum is {sha256lite} while server-side persists in using {md5}. This happens with any non-"md5" value of checksum: mtime, md5lite, etc. Add Comment   Puppet / PUP-2976 File { checksum => .. } doesn't work site.pp: {code:none} file {     "/tmp/ultravnc.msi":         source => "puppet:///repos/MSIs/UltraVnc_10962_x64.msi",         checksum => 'md5lite'; } {code} {code:none} [r...@releng-puppet1.srv.releng.scl3.mozilla.com MSIs]# puppet agent --test --environment=dmitchell --server=releng-puppet1.srv.releng.scl3.mozilla.com Info: Retrieving plugin...
