Hi all! If you haven’t heard of our new Puppet 5 repos, check out the announcement eric0 sent out here <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/puppet-announce/Q9BdHi21EPA/m8Nu54s6AQAJ> or read more about the Puppet 5 Platform on our website <https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/5.0/puppet_platform.html>.
I’m excited to announce a new and easy way for you to stay on the cutting edge of all our major releases. These are the new rolling Puppet repos. These rolling repos are links to the latest versioned Puppet repo we have available. Right now, that is the Puppet 5 repos. We’ll update these links for each major release moving forward. This option is for those of you who want to be at the forefront of all our releases. If you want to lock into a specific major version series, install the release package that corresponds to the series you want. However, we want to encourage everyone to use the rolling repos. We want them to be the default way people find and download Puppet. This is the best way to stay up to date on all security updates, new features, and performance improvements. Please note that you cannot have both the puppet5-release and puppet-release packages installed at the same time. The same will hold true for all future versioned Puppet release packages. If you would like to enable the rolling repos but you already have the puppet5 repos enabled, you will have to remove the puppet5-release packages.
