Guessing undef needs to be n rather than -?

[cdenneen]

I'm not sure having to set postfix::chroot: false should be required here rather than fixing why it's breaking. Should there be /var/spool/postfix/etc structure created with necessary files? Is there anyone running this on RedHat/CentOS?

[raphink]

tbh, the best option here would be to set up acceptance tests for such features.

[cdenneen]

Without this it’s broken. I’m not near computer to write tests for this. But I consider this kind of a critical bug fix for EL7

[cdenneen]

If we can at least get a release for 1.6.1 that has the chroot => false parameter then this issue can be fixed later but for now in order to disable chroot we need a new release since 1.6.0

[raphink]

Ah right, the chroot feature is not released yet so we wouldn't be breaking any releases if we changed the default behavior. I'm guessing defaulting to n is fine, if that works with all OSes.

I think this has been fixed by merging #224, no?

I'm going to assume the issue was fixed by #224.
