----------------------------------------
Given the following conditions:

1. service 'S' is currently disabled/stopped
1. config file 'F' for service 'S' is currently in state 'A'
1. puppet class 'C' calls for 'S' to be enabled/running and 'F' to be in state 
'B'

When puppet runs, the following currently occurs:
<pre>
notice: //C/File[F]/content: content changed '{md5}-A' to '{md5}-B'
info: //C/File[F]: Scheduling refresh of Service[S]
notice: //C/Service[S]/ensure: ensure changed 'stopped' to 'running'
notice: //C/Service[S]: Triggering 'refresh' from 1 dependencies
</pre>

Thus, puppet sees the service is to be running and makes it so.  Then it 
realizes that a refresh is needed and so restarts the service.  The restart is 
unnecessary in this case.  Depending on the particular service, this could be 
quite undesirable.  Puppet should be able to recognize this case and simply 
start the service just once.
