puppetmaster error /etc/puppet/files

[BitPusher]

Binary package hint: puppet

I just installed Lucid and puppetmaster. It shows an error in the syslog

Apr 16 10:19:41 sea-build3 puppetmasterd[540]: Removing mount files: /etc/puppet/files does not exist or is not a directory

Since the configuration is almost unchanged I wanted to report it as a bug

Creating an empty /etc/puppet/files directory makes the error go away.
Since templates and manifests are also (empty) directories in /etc/puppet that get created by the packages, I would suggest that files/ be treated the same

Does that prevent the puppetmasterd process from starting?

No, the puppetmasterd process runs as normal.

Nothing - this message appears with the default configuration. I just
verified this.
