So here I am I have a base profile for my Ubuntu (Debian family)

and now Puppet is screaming that the class 'apt' cannot be invoked
twice. This seems to be a flaw in Puppet manifests to me. How to fix?
The best practice is to not use the resource like `class { name: ... }`
syntax to declare a class and instead use `include name` and letting all
parameter values come from hiera via automatic parameter lookup.
That way, you can include the class as many times as you like - as the
parameters are the same every time. Unfortunately, the compiler cannot
do the same when classes are declared with parameters even if all places
this is done use the exact same values.
While it is possible to have a single `class { name: ... }` declaration
with subsequent `include name` declarations, the opposite does not work.
Hope this helps.
