Well that's weird and mildly confusing. The class is opsys::centos but
we're really including opsys::CentOS. Nice.
Anyway, so lets say I now have this in my opssys::centos class
class opsys::centos {
Package {
require => Exec["yum-clean-all"]
}
exec {
"yum-clean-all":
command => "/usr/bin/yum clean all";
}
}
and I include it in every single module (shame I can't include it at
site.pp). As far as I know, including one class in another does not
guarantee that the other class gets evaluated first, even though the
other class has a default Package{} .... or does it? Docs on this
stuff in puppet are really murky.
