Puppet users - Sep 2012 - Puppet module dependencies

Hi,

I am having difficulties understanding how to get 2 modules to install one 
after the other.
I have in total 3 modules:

    common  # contains everything common to the master and slave 
configuration
    slave   # contains what is specific to the slaves config
    master  # contains what is specific to the masters config

    node  ''myslave1''
    {
      class {      
          "common":
              database => "192.168.1.10",
              before => Class["slave"];
      }
        
      class {
          "slave":
      }
    }
    
I am trying to tell the slave module to run after the common module is 
totally applied, but it doesn''t work like I am expecting. In the common
module
I set some repository and execute an update on the newly added repository.
But what happen is that, some slave package tries to get installed before
the common module complete the configuration of the repositories.

How can I achieve my goal?

Best,
Dominick

I''m going to guess that the issue is this

Pay particular attention to the paragraph between the first two code
blocks.  That spells out why the ''before =>
Class["slave"]'' that you''re
using isn''t doing what you want.
