Puppet users - Jan 2012 - Exec depends on ressources that are several different types

Hi dear puppet users.

I have an perl file that depends on a lib, that I want to execute.
I have stripped the parts of config that weren''t relevant here such as
owner, group and so on

In perl script : use Config::Tiny.
Script is stored on puppet master.

Manifest :
____
file { "/path/to/file.pl": source => "puppet:///file.pl, mode
=>
"0755" }
package { "libconfig-tiny-perl": ensure => installed }
exec { "/path/to/file.pl": require => XXXXXXXX }
____

at XXXXXX I would like to put Package[''libconfig-tiny-perl"] AND
File["/path/to/file.pl"] which doesn''t work.

In the docs
( http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/language_guide.html )
it gives an example
service { ''sshd'':
      require => File[''sshdconfig'',
''sshconfig'', ''authorized_keys'']
    }

But this only works for multiple dependencies that have the same
nature, here "File"

I have found a workaround which is to put the package dependency in
the file section (file depends on package, exec depends on file, all
solved), but while this does work in my specific case, I''m sure there
are others where it wouldn''t work.

So is there any way to specify multiple resource dependency when the
resources have a different nature ?

Thanks all

Patrick

require accepts an array, so you should be able to do this:
require => [File[''foo''],Exec[''bar'']]

It worked. Thanks so much. I should submit this as an addition in one
of the wiki examples on the puppet website.

Ideally submit it as a bug against this page:
