Issue #3997 has been updated by Luke Kanies.
The only way that would work is if we added a special syntax that treated the
current resource as a new scope. I'm thinking something like:
<pre>
file { "/my/file":
require => Other[%title]
}
</pre>
Or, I guess, we could actually make each resource its own scope, but I think
that would be more confusing yet.

Feature #3997: Make local name available in types

I'm trying to create an automatic require on the destination of a mount
directory like this:
<pre>
node sans-tftp {
include nfs::client
file { "/home/services/tftp":
ensure => directory,
}
mount { "/home/services/tftp":
atboot => true,
device => "fs-systems.inf.ethz.ch:/export/groups/systems/p1/project/sans",
dump => 0,
pass => 0,
ensure => mounted,
fstype => "nfs",
options => "defaults",
require => [Package["nfs::common"],File[$title]],
}
include tftpd_hpa
}
</pre>
This results in the error
Could not find dependency File[sans-tftp] for Mount[/home/services/tftp] at
/etc/puppet/manifests/nodes/nico.pp:312
According to IRC, $name is only available from the sourrounding scope. I think
having both available, would make life much easier.
