Guys, I'm a bit confused ... Debian/stable won't pick up 0.25.x anymore anyways. A list of Puppet versions in Debian: lenny (stable): 0.24.5-3 backports: 2.6.2-1~bpo50+1 squeeze: 2.6.2-1 sid: 2.6.2-2 experimental: 2.6.3-1 So the upcoming stable release will at least include 2.6.2. I'm not sure yet, whether they will even be trying to get 2.6.3 into squeeze, since they also got 2.6.2 into it after the official freeze. So if you are still running lenny boxes as soon as 2.7 will be out and you are going to mix *lenny* puppet agents with *sid* puppet masters you could still use the 2.6.2 packages which are already in backports. Basically, at least for Debian, I see no reason why it would be a bad idea for Puppetlabs to drop the support for pre 0.25.x clients.
