absent.

This is kind of a nonsense situation, except for code such as this:
define userconfig::p4include (
$ensure = present,
$source = 'puppet:///modules/userconfig/p4include'
) {
# This will cut down on extra network requests
$real_source = $ensure ? {
absent => undef,
default => $source,
}
file { "/home/${name}/.p4include":
ensure => $ensure,
source => $real_source,
}
}
Without the selector, the source is always queried, causing extra overhead, and
failing if the source doesn't exist. Even if you're ensuring absent.
