I don't entirely agree with this, sure its a paramaterized classes specific but 
they are also the only way to use stages.

A whole lot of people would love to use stages.  Unfortunately I missed this 
update and I guess we're too late now in 2.6.2

Bug #4778: Evaluation of classes instantiated using parameterized style 
shouldn't be deferred
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4778

Author: R.I. Pienaar aka Volcane
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 2.6.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.1
Keywords: 
Branch: 


Given the manifest:

<pre>
stage{"bootstrap": before => Stage["main"]}


class setup {
    $something = "this"
}

class foo {
    notify{"${setup::something}": }
}
</pre>

The following includes work:

<pre>
include setup
include foo

notice: /Stage[main]/Foo/Notify[this]/message: defined 'message' as 'this'
</pre>

However if I put the setup in the bootstrap stage it doesnt:

<pre>
class{"setup": stage => "bootstrap"}
include foo

warning: Scope(Class[Foo]): Could not look up qualified variable 
'setup::something'; class setup has not been evaluated
notice: 
notice: /Stage[main]/Foo/Notify[]/message: defined 'message' as ''
No title provided and "Notify[]" is not a valid resource reference
</pre>

I'd expect this to work
