Issue #6907 has been updated by Matthias Pigulla.

Luke -- thanks for clarification. I'll stand by and see if I can help :-).

Although I double-checked Stefan's [simple example](#note-4) doesn't work with 
your feature branch. Making the `command` optional solves it.

Feature #6907: Ensure providers can be used in the same puppet run that their 
prerequisites are delivered in
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6907

Author: Nigel Kersten
Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review
Priority: Urgent
Assignee: Jacob Helwig
Category: provider
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version:

This is possibly more accurately described as a collection of bug fixes, as 
we've aimed to fix this several times, however I'm characterizing this as a 
feature, and we're going to associate related bugs with it.

Essentially we want to be able to use a provider in the same run that it's 
prerequisites (like :commands and paths) are delivered in. 

You should not have to run puppet twice to use a provider.

We're aiming this at 2.6.x initially, but if it turns out that we need 
significant plumbing work to make this happen, we are re-targeting at Statler.
