Subject: Re: Puppet more recent version
Not to derail the thread too far, but upstream is now offering Puppet
in RPM format at yum.puppetlabs.com/el or /fedora.
That might help if you'd like some newer items.
I'm also working with tmz on moving forward with the newer versions of
Puppet in Fedora/EPEL. Fedora shouldn't be a big problem. EPEL is a
bit more tricky as we have some behavior changes between 0.25, 2.6 and
2.7 .

Thanks Mike - That's effectively a big leap forward.
Although it's more likely a question to post on EPEL list:
Are the yum.puppetlabs.com/el packages not destined upfront for EPEL?.
Puppet Labs
releases a version of Puppet about once a month. That's
kind of fast moving for EPEL (since you have to wait at least 2 weeks
in epel-testing). Sometimes Puppet breaks compatibility between
versions also. We try not to do this, but sometimes it happens. We're
really trying not to do that though.
What's the behaviour issue?
I understand packages would have to be rebuilt using RH standards but one would assume
they are compatible.
Packages are up to EPEL/RH standards. It's more an issue
of if you
had manifests/modules that worked with 0.25, then 2.6 in 2.7 they may
not quite work.
Do there is a roadmap for Puppet to make to RHEL 6?
Not sure about this question.
We support EL 6 today.
Especially in regards of RHN Satellite roadmap and being able to pave
the road in that direction.
I can't speak too much about Satellite, as I'm not much of a community
member there any more.
