I just started reading about Puppet a few days ago, so some of my questions may be simple.
I noticed that you can specify explicit dependencies between resources in several ways. There are also a small number of cases where Puppet adds implicit dependencies (file to parent directory, for instance). I noticed that the "service" resource type has a "binary" property, which points to the executable file. In an example I saw in a book, it uses the subscribe metaparameter, specifying the executable file path. This situation seems like an obvious place for an implicit dependency, which if that was present, would make the explicit dependency redundant. Is there an implicit dependency relationship here? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
