Hello,
When using puppet 7 (via the Debian package provided by puppetlabs) on a
client, at the end of the agent call, I get an error while sending the
report:
```
Notice: Applied catalog in 9.54 seconds
Error: Could not send report: undefined method `split' for :file:Symbol
```
After plenty digging, it seems that the error occurs in Psych 2.7.0, more
specifically in the accept function defined in psych/visitors/yaml_tree.rb
. When calling `send(@dispatch_cache[target.class], target)`, the
dispatch_cache hash executes this snippet of code :
```
method = "visit_#{(klass.name || '').split('::').join('_')}"
```
The thing is, sometimes, klass is a Puppet type, eg "Puppet::Type::File".
In that case, klass.name is a Symbol ("file") and not a String. Therefore
"split" isn't defined and the code crashes.
Looking at the code in recent puppet releases I can't find significant
changes.
My question is therefore, is it normal that send_report sends elements that
provide "Puppet::Type" classes to outside modules? If not, why is it
happening?
Happy to provide more intel and debug.
Cheers!
