You can pass a string to a definition. 1.18.29 doesn't look like a float.

You can use the versioncmp function. It didn't quite work in puppet
0.24.8, but if you copy lib/puppet/parser/functions/versioncmp.rb from
puppet-0.25.0 then it should work. See issue #2110.
I think you want somethng like this:
if (versioncmp($version, "1.22") >= 0) {
# do stuff
}
