Re: [Bug 700945] Re: backport of patch for error message undefined method `closed?' for Nil:NilClass required.

Hi guys, I am very happy to confirm that this worked great. First it was gave me an indication that the remote server was not responding (as per http://bitcube.co.uk/content/puppet-errors-explained) and then it correclt diagnosed a mismatched server identity. Thanks for getting this fix in.

This bug was fixed in the package puppet - 0.25.4-2ubuntu6.1 --- puppet (0.25.4-2ubuntu6.1) lucid-proposed; urgency=low * Work around a bug in Ruby that causes meaningful error messages to be hidden by a ruby error message (cf. http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3101).

Oliver thats great! We usually try to get some third party who did not develop the fix to verify the proposed packages before marking it as verification done. Anand, are you still affected by the original problem, and if so, would you be willing to try out the package from lucid-proposed? --

Hi Oliver, thanks for posting a fix to this bug. Since it sounds like this issue exists only for Lucid, not natty, I'm closing the general task for natty, and leaving the Lucid task open for further work. The debdiff applies, but I think you should use a patch system like quilt rather than patch
