Issue #3136 has been updated by Tim Stoop.

Which file would i need to require to fix this? I'm running into the same 
'problem'. It's not really a problem, because everything works as expected, but 
I'd love to get rid of the error.

Already require'ing 'puppet/type', but that doesn't do it, I'm afraid.

For example error with puppet-mysql:
<pre>

info: Loading downloaded plugin 
/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/parser/functions/mysql_password.rb

initialized constant MYSQL_DB_PRIVS
info: Loading downloaded plugin /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/type/mysql_user.rb
info: Loading facts in mysql
info: Loading facts in mysql
</pre>


Code that fails is 
<pre>
Puppet::Type.type(:mysql_database).provide(:mysql,
                :parent => Puppet::Provider::Package) do

        desc "Use mysql as database."

</pre>

that is 
"info: Loading downloaded plugin 
/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/type/mysql_database.rb"
which happens after:
"info: Loading downloaded plugin 
/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/mysql_database/mysql.rb"

even though the provider mysql_database needs it defined beforehand.


Attached is a patch to workaround this by loading (on the client side as its 
there that sort happens) puppet://puppet/plugins/puppet/type before all the 
others.

Maybe facts should also be up explicitely but right now the default sort 
ordering place them on the top already (but this is directory layout dependent).
