It does match if this is the only rule in the database, however it probably collides with one of your other rules.

Patterndb currently doesn't backtrack, and if there's a conflict at a position, it simply picks the first parser and tries to go that way.

If you can expect "Puppet::" as a prefix, I'd recommend to match against that as it

1) performs much better
2) avoids the collision
