Cannot include `sysctl`

[caarlos0]

I'm trying to do this:

class mymodule::sysctl {
  include sysctl
  sysctl { 'kernel.shmmax': value => '26843545600' }
  sysctl { 'kernel.shmall': value => '6553600' }
}

But my tests fail with:

     # ./spec/classes/mymodule_spec.rb:38:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'
     # ------------------
     # --- Caused by: ---
     # Puppet::Error:
     #   Could not find class ::sysctl for carlos-macbook.local
     #   ./spec/classes/mymodule_spec.rb:38:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'

I defined it in fixtures.yml:

repositories:
    sysctl: "https://github.com/thias/puppet-sysctl.git"

what am I doing wrong?

Do not 'include sysctl' before using it. It's a definition, not a class (and nothing can ever be both at the same time!).

@thias so I should just remove the include line, right?

Worked. Thanks
