Hi, while this won't be of much help, I'd just like to add that those requires are spurious. To create a symlink, all puppet "requires" is the parent directory (/etc/rc.d/init.d/ is present in any case). So from my perspective, it doesn't seem like puppet needs to process the packages or even the link target file before it creates the link. You can safely drop the require parameter. Concerning the original problem - I would be interested whether Package[$packagelist, "mimedefang"] works better.
