The documents on puppet forge shows this module as being compatible with apt based systems yum based systems (Debian/RedHat on the page)

I've just tried an install on a RHEL 7 based system and straight away the puppet run fails with an error
"This module only works on Debian or derivatives like Ubuntu at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/development/modules/apt/manifests/params.pp:4:5 on node gittest.dev.intra.local"

Before I start digging through this, is this module actually supposed to support non-Debian based systems as puppet forge suggests, or does this need to be correctly tagged on puppet forge ?

(I should point out that it's the apt module thats causing this error - thats being called by the gitlab module, however before I start looking into why it seemed prudent to ask if this is actually still designed to work with Enterprise Linux 7

the problem is that the module dependency pulls in apt even on EL based systems, and as your documentation suggests this is only needed if you are using debian based systems and have the manage_repo param set to false, however as the puppet module pulls in the dependency it causes this error, I'll see if there is anything that can be done to validate this within the class its self to handle it better and raise a pull request if I can.
