Puppet

I got this deprecation warning on a file resource that I am managing, which was like this:

file {    
  "/home/":
    mode => 2755,
    owner => root,
    group => staff,
    recurse => 1;
}

Ok, no problem, thanks for the deprecation warning. So I go an lookup the docs about how recurselimit should be, it says:

recurse: Whether and how deeply to do recursive management. Valid values are true, false, inf, remote. Values can match /^[0-9]+$/.
recurselimit: How deeply to do recursive management. Values can match /^[0-9]+$/.

Ok, so that says to me that I should specify that I want to do recursion (what is remote?) and that I should set the recurselimit to be one to match my former behavior, so I turned my file resource above into this:

file {    
  "/home/":
    mode => 2755,
    owner => root,
    group => staff,
    recurse => true,
    recurselimit => 1;
}

However, I am still getting this deprecation notice:

warning: /File[/home/]/recurse: Setting recursion depth with the recurse parameter is now deprecated, please use recurselimit

even though I am not setting the recursion depth with the recurse parameter. I’m not sure if the documentation is wrong here, or this warning is not very smart?
