Description

We get the following warning messages in our puppetserver.log relating to this module:

2024-05-13T09:09:35.299+02:00 WARN  [qtp326372050-610476] [puppetserver] Puppet Deferred function node_decrypt has no return_type, unable to guarantee value type during compilation.
   (file & line not available)

We are unsure what to do with this warning, or if it is actionable at all on our end. If this warning message is unnecessary, would it be possible to remove it?

  • Puppet Version [7.28.0]
  • node_encrypt Version [3.1.0]
  • Platform [RHEL 8]
