Description
Multiple libdirs do not appear to be easily supported in puppet.conf.
root@localhost:/home/mpdehaan/dashboard# puppet —genconfig | grep libdir
# The default value is '$libdir'.
libdir = /var/puppet/lib
If I change this to
libdir = /var/puppet/lib:/some/other
Puppet interprets this as a directory named “/var/puppet/lib:/some/other”
Also I can’t do:
libdir = $libdir:/some/other
Which seem to be implied doable from the dashboard documentation.

Conversation seems to indicate that the docs may mean you’re not supposed to update libdir (i was reading dashboard docs), and it might have been saying to update modulepath — and was just confusingly written.
If libdir is meant to point at /var/lib/puppet, there can only be one. In which case this is invalid, and the problem is with the docs saying to add something to libdir in dashboard.
Please close if you agree. I’m not sure that is the intent of libdir or not.
