Yup, this is the classes-can't-contain-classes problem. It sucks, everyone runs into it eventually, and it's explained in detail here:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_containment.html#known-issues http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8040 You'll need to use the "anchor pattern" (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_containment.html#workaround-the-anchor-pattern) to ensure that the interior classes get "held" in place inside their wrapper class. The platform development team uses votes in our issue tracker to help decide what they'll focus on next. If this problem bothered you a lot, please vote for issue 8040 here: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8040 Sorry for the inconvenience, and good luck.
