So, I just went to fix this and it's not a bug... Did you try to add
the classname as the group name?

I need to add some documentation on puppet groups. A puppet group is a
collection of puppet classes and variables. Basically, it's a way to
organize what's shown in the "configure" interface. If you wanted to
add "generic::mysql::server" to your project, you'd create a
"database" group, then add "generic::mysql::server" as a class under
that group.

I added "generic::mysql::server" as a class under the global
"database" puppet group, so it's available for use.
