Issue #4248 has been updated by Jeff McCune.

OK, so Chris and I are going to dive into this together on Friday.

As I mentioned in the comments many moons ago...  This is not limited to 
pluginsync.

* Puppet apply needs to work as a first class citizen.  If it pluginsyncs, 
great, if not, it still needs to work.
* Puppet master needs to work as a first class citizen.  (Parser functions.  
Types and providers, etc...)

So, don't go based on the subject alone.  It's not capturing the full scope of 
this problem.

Feature #4248: Load "library" plugins that are used by multiple puppet 
functions and delivered via pluginsync
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4248#change-65513

Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 0.25.5

Branch: 


Because we do not add all module lib directories to Ruby's search path, ruby 
classes that exist only in the modules (because they have not yet been synced 
via pluginsync) cannot be found.  The autoloader correctly loads files from the 
modules, but ruby itself can't load supporting classes.


Old description:

At present we can copy parser functions, types and providers out with plugins 
sync, this works fine.

It seems though we cannot copy out Puppet::Util::* classes - useful for code 
accessed by various parser functions for example.

I need to do something like:

<pre>
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../../util/foo.rb'
</pre>

from a parser function since:

<pre>
require 'puppet/util/foo'
</pre>

doesnt work.

I am also keen to be able to copy out new application classes that will tie 
into the puppet single executable thing, i guess these 2 features might be in 
the same realm.
