Yes, you face the same issue, seeing as you just brought it in a
different notation. The same relationships are established.

This is actually not possible.
If Puppet should refresh the service upon change of the config file, it
*must* evaluate the file resource before the service resource.
You need to disentangle your relationships and come up with an order in
which you want your resources applied, e.g.
Package -> File -> Service
This may indeed mean that you cannot require a whole class. But as
Christopher has advised, you mileage may increase if you structure the
classes more distinctly.
