Ensure resource ordering, regardless of boolean states. #11

Closed joshsouza closed 9 years ago

User/Group ordering causes errors rarely without this, due to the semi-random manner in which Puppet orders things. If the group gets created before the user, the user create will fail. Can't put direct require/before tags in the entities though, due to the if statements on management, thus we just use resource ordering. I added in the File bit so that the file resource that depends on the user/group ensures they exist first (that can also cause ordering issues).

Nice one - and the syntax is both unusual and pretty :)

Unfortunately this is breaking because its causing dependency cycles with other user and group resources elsewhere.

In my opinion this is not needed. We do the same thing over at puppet-consul module and it works fine without this extra precaution.
