I think so. This appears to be a somewhat special case of confusing
parse order with application order. Class['ruby_devel'] does not
actually do anything during resource application -- realizing a
virtual package is strictly a server-side activity.
Package['readline'] belongs to Class['vpackages'], so if you want to
express your order dependency on a class instead of directly on
Package['readline'] then the class to target should be
Class['vpackages'].
If you want to hide that a bit, then I think you could add
Class['vpackages'] -> Class['ruby_devel']
in the same file as ruby_devel, right after the class's closing
brace. Probably. Then the chain in your "rvm" class should have the
expected result.
