    Description

      Summary

      If light-modules are added as symlinks to the magnolia.resources.dir, their module descriptors are not properly read. Defined dependencies are missing.

      => As a consequence, YAML !inherits fails when inheriting between light-modules.
      (Because of this, i have created the ticket as a blocker)


      To reproduce failure

      (I)
      Clone having-fun-with-yaml to /yours/dev/repo/having-fun-with-yaml

      (II)
      Set

      magnolia.resources.dir=/yours/dev/lightmodules

      (III)
      In /yours/dev/lightmodules create these symlinks:

      module-a -> ../repo/having-fun-with-yaml/light-modules/module-a/
      module-b -> ../repo/having-fun-with-yaml/light-modules/module-b/
      

      (IV)
      Start magnolia; check the log after start or check the Definition app; both claim:

      " (YAML dependency resolution) - Missing definition dependency
      Problem details: Inherited definition at (module-a:components/a-component) either does not exist or is not loaded because of the missing module dependency in module (module-b), which currently depends only on () 2"

      To verify that having-fun-with-yaml is ok:
      (I)
      see above:
      (II) Set

      magnolia.resources.dir=/yours/dev/repo/having-fun-with-yaml/light-modules

      (III) Start the instance, this time it will work.
