Hi,

My Puppet Dashboard is running on Debian stable, installed from puppetlabs 
repositories.
The last upgrade completely broke down. See below for the output:

# aptitude safe-upgrade

  libactionmailer-ruby1.8 libactionpack-ruby1.8 libactiverecord-ruby1.8

8 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 6,393 kB of archives. After unpacking 115 kB will be freed.
