File resource service_overrides_template cannot be removed

[tux-o-matic]

Today the systemd file defined by $service_overrides_template creates a file if not set to undef. However, if the if conditional statement is negative, it does not remove the the file.

It should be possible to control the ensure value from the File resource

Try service_overrides_template => false This will stop from creating the file. I had to do this because this module actually breaks default Centos7.3 Docker installation. This is my workaround:

  class { 'docker':
      use_upstream_package_source => false,
      package_name                => 'docker',
      service_overrides_template  => false, # Required as Docker module breaks default Centos Docker installation.
      service_config              => false, # Required as Docker module breaks default Centos Docker installation.
      storage_config              => false, # Required as Docker module breaks default Centos Docker installation.
    }

@starchx as I mentioned, the problem is that the module does not clean after itself if at some point it already created the file. So setting the value to false will not help if the file was already created previously.
