Issue #8596 has been updated by Guido GĂșnther.

Target version changed from 2.6.13 to 2.7.x

This change breaks use cases like:

package { 'foo':
    ensure => latest,
    provider => 'apt',
}

package { 'foobar':
    name => 'foo',
    provider => 'otherprovider',
}

This allows one to have two packages named 'foo' on the system. One provided by 
apt (under /) as well as another one installed by 'otherprovider' into an 
alternative location. Unfortuantely several packaging systems are quite common 
(e.g. openpkg). A solution would be to also honor more attributes to decide if 
a resource is unique.
----------------------------------------
Bug #8596: Title and name must be unique within a given resource.

I discovered today that a catalog will compile if two files have the same path 
yet different namevars. Not sure if this is on purpose for some reason I can't 
think of, or what.
