I discussed about this with Luke at Puppetcamp, and he said that 2.6 should have fixed it. Since you changed the affected version, I conclude it is not fixed in 2.6. Is that correct? ---------------------------------------- Bug #3382: Class require chain thru class with no resources http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3382 Author: Alan Harder Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Brice Figureau Category: functions Target version: Affected version: 2.6.0rc4 Keywords: require Branch: This may be working as designed, but wanted to file an issue to make sure. Consider this test case: <pre> class foo { notify { 'foo': } class bar { require foo # notify { 'bar': } } } class baz { require foo::bar notify { 'baz': } } node default { include baz } </pre> When notify 'bar' is uncommented, this works as expected.. the notify messages always appear in order: foo, bar, baz. However, with notify 'bar' commented the order is sometimes foo,baz and sometimes baz,foo. It seems that some resource must be in the foo::bar class to enforce that foo is evaluated before baz. Is this expected that a class level "require" chain only works when each link in the chain has at least one resource? I use a setup like this sometimes where a subclass sets some variables and then requires the outer class, so it has no resources of its own. If you have another recommended way to do this, let me know :-) I guess I could do "require foo::bar, foo" but that's less intuitive usage.
