Description
Setting the gecos/comment field in a local user on debian wheezy with puppet 3.4.2-1puppetlabs1 fails with an ugly error about utf-8 encodings.
As this system is completely utf-8 there is no reason that this should be an invalid value, as can be seen by "puppet resource" and "getent passwd" displaying the value without problems.
