Puppet users - Nov 2006 - Does subscribe imply require?

Hi there,

I find myself writing a lot of similar required/subscribe parameters, for
example in service definitions:

package { whatever :
  ensure => latest
}

service { whatever:
  ensure => running,
  require => Package[ whatever ],
  subscribe => Package[ whatever ]
}

Am I doing this correctly, or does subscribe imply require so the require
parameter here is unnecessary?

Thanks in advance, best regards
Jose

Subscribe is a superset of require, so using both is unnecessary.
