Yes. You are probably mistaken about the order in which the classes
themselves are applied. Instead, you almost certainly have a containment
problem. The symptom you would have noticed is that one or more classes
(but not any resources) declared by class 'puppet_agent' are applied after
one or more classes (but not any resources) declared by class base_config.
In brief, if you search the archives of this group for "containment" and
"anchor pattern" (the latter being the usual solution) then you should find
lots of relevant information.
If you remain uncertain about whether yours is a containment problem, then
post your classes and the output from which you concluded that ordering was
not working correctly.
Also, relationships work the same for all classes, including module-level
classes such as yours. Run stages would be a rather heavy-handed solution
to your problem, and they sometimes cause more problems than they solve.
