Puppet is checking if the package "mod_security2" is installed but I
think the package is called "apache2-mod_security2", right?
If you add name => "apache2-mod_security2", it should do what you expect.
Since you haven't specified the name property, puppet automatically
uses the title as the name of the package to check. Puppet is doing
the equivalent of rpm -q mod_security2 when it should be doing rpm -q
apache-mod_security2 to check if the package is installed or not.
Hope this helps.
