I'm sorry, but that fails as far as I'm concerned. I shouldn't be
having to specify common behaviour multiple times.

I found the above bug while researching puppet environments. I would
like to use environments and it occured to me that I could sidestep that
bug by simply adding
confdir=/etc/puppet/$environment
to /etc/puppet/puppet.conf. However, I as

Is there currently a way of accessing arbitrary puppet configuration
settings from manifests? A function or a virtual class (as in
PuppetConf('plugindest') or $puppet::plugindest. I'm guessing not, but
that writing a function to do this wouldn't be hard (in which case I'll
go off and do it).

The functions reference page is autogenerated. What is the source, if I
am to update it?
