Puppet users - Feb 2007 - tag() and tagged()

Hello,

   i am trying to use tag() and tagged() to try to change the settings of my
servers. For exemple i have a define webmin
  to install webmin, i have a define apache2 that install apache2. Now when i am
in the apache2 define i use tag(apache)
and in webmin define i use

case tagged(apache) {
	true: { package { webmin-apache: ensure => latest }  }
}

but this just don''t work.  if i add to the node tag(apache) then it
work. Why can''t i tag into a define ?

At this point the tagging is file-order dependent:  Puppet''s parser  
can only see tags that were created before the current line.

I expect that your webmin definition is used before your apache2  
definition, which is why you''re having this problem.

As soon as I can figure out how to solve this problem, I will.
