I don't know if this alone is sufficient to reproduce the problem, but
here goes:
define set_alternatives($linkto) {
exec {
"/usr/sbin/update-alternatives --set $name $linkto":
unless => "/bin/sh -c '! [ -e $linkto ] || ! [ -e
/etc/alternatives/$name ] || ([ -L /etc/alternatives/$name ] && [
/etc/alternatives/$name -ef $linkto ])'"
}
}
...
set_alternatives {
"editor":
linkto => "/usr/bin/vim.basic",
}
Cheers
