The error I was getting was due to duplicate declarations of the autofs
class as follows.
```
29) dart::abstract::aos_master_node on fedora-26-x86_64 should contain
Logrotate::Rule[httpd] with path => "/var/log/httpd/*log", missingok =>
true, ifempty => false, sharedscripts => true, delaycompress => false and
postrotate => "/bin/systemctl reload httpd.service > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
|| true"
Failure/Error: include '::dart::subsys::autofs::common'
Puppet::PreformattedError:
Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement,
Duplicate declaration: Class[Autofs] is already declared; cannot redeclare
(file:
projects/puppet/modules/dart/spec/fixtures/modules/dart/manifests/subsys/autofs/common.pp,
line: 35) (file:
projects/puppet/modules/dart/spec/fixtures/modules/dart/manifests/subsys/autofs/common.pp,
line: 35, column: 5) on node mdct-aos-master-f26.example.com
```
This occurs due to the dart::subsys::autofs::common class already being
included by our base node class. I've ran into this issue previously using
resource-like declarations as well.
Adding the if !defined wrapper solves the issue but it still feels like a
kludge instead of a proper solution.
