Bug Fix
-
If all keys specifying {{lookup_options}} in hiera data files were based on regular expression patterns, puppet would crash. This is now fixed. A work around while waiting for the fix is to add a lookup options for a dummy fixed key.

Description
UPDATE
When regular expression keys are using in lookup_options an error is raised if all of the lookup_option keys are regular expression.
A work around until this is fixed is to add a dummy, non regular expression key.

The following things has been changed compared to an pure puppet-agent installation:
- /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/hiera.yaml deleted
- /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hiera.yaml created with code from https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.9/hiera_migrate_v3_yaml.html#translating-built-in-backends . Only the datadir was changed to hieradata
- /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata/common.yaml was created. For code see above.
