Yes, we are working on packaging Fedora 17, but as Brian suspected, we haven't worked out the kinks in packaging against Ruby 1.9.x. If someone has patches to submit against the spec file in conf/redhat/puppet.spec that will allow for a ruby 1.9 build, please submit a pull request. If you want to help, but need pointers, I'm happy to point you in the right direction.
Anyone should feel free to pull the changes from The Fedora/EPEL packages for this. I've started on it before, but never had the time to finish it and submit a proper pull request. But we do have puppet packages that work reasonably for both ruby 1.8 and 1.9¹.
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=puppet.git¹ Modulo the bugs that are present in 2.7 with ruby 1.9, which I understand are unlikely to be fixed until 3.0. Personally, I'd avoid puppet on Fedora 17 until this has changed. It's a rather large pain in the ass.
