Issue #18913 has been updated by Russell Harrison.

Could I get some feedback to at least let me know this bug has been seen and is 
posted in the right place?  This issue is preventing my use of `rspec-puppet` 
and is [preventing me from 
packaging](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=787350) both 
`puppetlabs_spec_helper` and `rspec-puppet` as RPMs for Fedora and RHEL.

Thanks,
Russell

Bug #18913: puppetlabs_spec_helper requires rspec-puppet
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18913#change-83575

Author: Russell Harrison
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: High

Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: puppetlabs_spec_helper
Branch: 


Given the focus of `puppetlabs_spec_helper` to be the integration point for 
external projects like `rspec-puppet` it needs to be refactored to remove the 
dependency on `rspec-puppet` since you can't even require `rspec-puppet` 
without it.  Currently rodjek is [planning to 
refactor](https://github.com/rodjek/rspec-puppet/issues/56#issuecomment-12667834)
 `rspec-puppet` to no longer use `puppetlabs_spec_helper` but this seems 
backwards to me as he'll be forced to return to reverse engineering the 
internal workings of puppet which is exactly what this project is intended to 
solve.

This prevents using either the `rspec-puppet` or `puppetlabs_spec_helper` gems 
until the dependency cycle is resolved. It also [prevents 
packaging](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=787350) of either gem.
