[Puppet Users] Trouble with notify/require/before/subscribe

Hi,
I'll add that chaining arrows between single resources can quickly become
cumbersome when the number of resources starts increasing (more files, more
packages…).
I worked around this by using tags and resource collectors.

You can set tags as default attributes for the resource types you are
using, e.g.:

Package {
     tag => "my-packages",
   }

File {
     tag => "my-files",
}

Service {
     tag => "my-services",
}

And then you can use resource collectors to define dependencies between
your tagged types:

Package <| tag == "my-packages" |>
->
File <| tag == "my-files" |>
~>
Service <| tag == "my-services" |>

(Writing dependencies on separate lines makes them easier to read and
understand IMHO)
