Hi,
Your comparison of $::zend_gui_completed is never boolean true, so the
notify always happens. Perhaps your fact is returning a string and not a
boolean. Put this in your code just above the conditional statement.
$zgc_type = inline_template('<%= @zend_gui_completed.class %>')
notify { "zend_gui_completed is type ${zgc_type}": }
If it is a string, check out str2bool() from stdlib[1].
