Hi Thomas,

Can you possibly throw together a very simple manifest file to demonstrate this 
behavior?  We'll be happy to take a deeper look at it then.

Thanks!

Bug #12789: Overwriting a class that's using a definition fails
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12789#change-55836

Hello,

please apologize if this was reported elsewhere already...

We have class X that's included in the default node. The class uses a defined 
type of the same class with ensure => present. We also have class Y that 
inherits X and sets this defined type ensure => absent. If we assign Y to a 
node via another class or via ENC, it does nothing. The defined type is still 
ensure => present. However, if we assign class Y via a node definition, it 
works, the define is ensure => absent. 

Overwriting native puppet types always works, but as soon as you are 
overwriting a definition, the overwrite does just nothing.

If this is supposed to work, I think we hit a bug here...

Best regards,
Thomas
