The default is atime, maybe you could try mtime?
tidy {delete_old_yaml:
path => "/var/lib/puppet/reports",
age => '1w',
type => 'mtime',
recurse => true,
matches => ["*.yaml"],
}
Your filesystem might be set to noatime - you can try find with the -mtime
and -atime and see if there is a difference on what is returned.
