That is not surprising to me. To provide maximal flexibility, puppet does
not do any management or cleanup of processes started. As an exercise, try
to define a parameter to exec that specifies how puppet should cleanup
processes after exec: as soon as the exec returns? when the agent run ends?

Hi
If I define:
exec { '/bin/sleep 300 &':
timeout => 10,
}
and run it with puppet apply: it happily starts the sleep, backgrounds it
and finishes - leaving the sleep in the background alive.
Is this behaviour as expected? I personally expected that puppet would
ensure all started processes
