Issue #12789 has been updated by Thomas Sturm.

Assignee changed from Thomas Sturm to Chris Price
Affected Puppet version changed from 2.7.6 to 2.7.11

Hi Chris, 

thanks for your update. Your test2.pp works as expected, however it's a 
different story when running this with a master and an indirect include via an 
intermediate class or ENC. I have no idea what I could do to prove that to you 
or to give more information or what could cause this different behaviour. 
Please advise :) We upgraded to 2.7.11 recently, but still suffer from this bug.

Bug #12789: Overwriting a class that's using a definition fails
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12789#change-58668

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
