Do local modules override modules defined on the puppet master?

I'm using Puppet on Solaris and I'd like to use the most updated version of Solaris providers from github. Puppet on Solaris comes with the provider module already installed, but it is dated. I put the provider module in my Puppetfile and my puppet master sees it just fine, r10k populates it the environments' module directories, etc. But when I run "puppet agent -t", it seems to be using the older version of the module. Here are my paths: root@test1:/etc/puppet/modules# puppet config print modulepath basemodulepath modulepath = /etc/puppet/modules:/usr/share/puppet/modules basemodulepath = /etc/puppet/modules:/usr/share/puppet/modules
