In Debian's release cycle, the packages are freezed before a release.
when this happens it means that package versions that are currently in
the "testing" branch will be used for the next debian release, and will
be used until the next release.

the "stable" part in all that is the debian branch name that represents
the current release, so what software they support.

security patches will be backported to 2.6 as much as possible for as
long as the current "stable" branch is the current one.

for now, you can use the squeeze-backports[1] branch, in which you can
find puppet 2.7
