Description

Puppet 0.25.5rc3 (maybe also before, but I just realized it now) tell something like:

Sat May 15 21:50:24 +0200 2010 Puppet (warning): alias is a metaparam; this value will inherit to all contained resources

But this message is absolutely not useful as you have no idea on which define this happens.

Warning message should contain at least the define in question.
