Issue #18109 has been updated by eric sorenson.

Status changed from Unreviewed to Needs More Information
Assignee set to Chris Spence

Chris -- does 'include test' work as you intend? I.e. is it something in the 
resource-style class declaration that is doing this, or is it a general 
namespace problem?

If it's the former, I think there are some other related bugs around this that 
would be good to link up to one another.

Bug #18109: Class namespace declaration appears to be dynamically scoped
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18109#change-84074

Affected Puppet version: 2.7.19

In the example below, the class declaration test generates an error

    class role::test {
      class { 'test': }
      #include test
    }
    Duplicate declaration: Class[Role::Test] is already declared; cannot 
redeclare at /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/role/manifests/test.pp:2

as it appears to be attempting to redeclare itself due to dynamic namespacing 
in the class { 'test': } declaration.

the 'include test' line also doesn't do the 'right thing' because it declares 
the role::test class, however include ::test does the right thing 

The workaround is to declare class { '::test': } (or include ::test) , however 
I wouldn't expect class declaration lookup to be dynamic as a default - I can 
see that dynamic lookup would cause this to happen, but  wonder if this 
behaviour should be reviewed.
