Bug #3758: node inheritance locks scope
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3758

Author: Kjetil Torgrim Homme
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Target version:

Branch: 


when a resource is defined via a class included in a parent node, the scope 
seems to get fixed, and later overrides will not use the most recent scope.

 class foo {
    file { "/tmp/blub": }
 }
 class foo::overrides inherits foo {
    File["/tmp/blub"] {
        source => "puppet:///foo.$var"
    }
 }
 node base_node {
    include foo
 }
 node 'feh' inherits base_node {
    $var = "testing"
    include foo::overrides
 }

"feh" is the name of my workstation.  when I run the above code, it complains 
about the file "foo." missing.  if I move "include foo" into the feh node, I 
get the expected error about "foo.testing" missing.  setting $var in base_node 
before "include foo" also works.
