Cauldrons filled with water, lava or powder snow cannot be used as a workstation for villagers

The bug

Because filled cauldrons have been seperated into different blocks, water, lava and powder snow cauldrons don’t work as a workstation to get leatherworker villagers anymore.

How to reproduce:

  1. Place a cauldron

  2. Spawn a villager

  3. ✔ The villager will link to it

  4. Put water or lava in it
    ❌ The villager will unlink from the cauldron.

Hey there!

Just to let you know, I wasn't able to reproduce this in bug in 1.16.4 however, I was able to in 20w45a.

The reason why this can’t be reproduced in 1.16.4 is, because empty cauldrons and cauldrons with water are not seperated in in 2 blocks in 1.16.4. In the snapshot they have been seperated, which also caused MC-203617 to be a thing.

So a cauldron standing outside in the open, filling up with water from rain, will become invalid for villagers as a workstation, even if they have already claimed it as a workstation?

Affects 20w46a
Additionally affects Powder Snow Cauldron

Since villages only naturally generate water cauldrons this has also made leatherworker villagers unable to spawn naturally (or they immediately lose their profession upon generation).

I would suggest separating and marking as not-a-bug for cauldrons filled with lava.

Can confirm in 21w07a.
