Issue #2020 has been updated by R.I. Pienaar aka Volcane.
Is there any chance at all we can get this change into the next release? It's community owned, not sure if there's any hope. Last ditch effort before backing out my virtual packages and moving back to standard resources :( ---------------------------------------- Bug #2020: Realizing a resource should create a dependency on that resource http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2020 Author: R.I. Pienaar aka Volcane Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: language Target version: Affected version: 0.24.6 Keywords: Branch: puppet 0.24.6 Typically I have modules laid out like this: apache::install, apache::config, apache::service inside apache::config resources will require Class["apache::install"] making sure all the installation tasks gets done first. Using simple package{..} resources in the apache::install class all works as you'd hope, but on moving to virtual packages I am seeing configuration files get created before the packages gets installed, below simple manifest demonstrates the problem: <pre> class virt { @file{"/tmp/file1": content => "file 1\n" } @file{"/tmp/file2": require => File["/tmp/file1"], content => "file 2\n" } } class prereq { realize(File["/tmp/file1"]) realize(File["/tmp/file2"]) } include virt include prereq file{"/tmp/file3": content => "file 3\n", require => Class["prereq"] } </pre> When I run this I'd expect all the resources in Class["prereq"] to be realized, files created etc, before /tmp/file3, on running it though I get: <pre> notice: //File[/tmp/file3]/content: created file with contents {md5}9c38e8324dbf031557c89d53a39f0b26 notice: //virt/File[/tmp/file1]/content: created file with contents {md5}e243bb39c844b3543a7726576c869caf notice: //virt/File[/tmp/file2]/content: created file with contents {md5}4349cfeff8e2eb74dffc369bb5fd084e </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
