All,

I keep seeing updates about a new release of a standalone puppet agent.

Other than small file size and a possible reduced dependency set, is there any useful point in porting it to FreeBSD?

Right now, on FreeBSD, pkg shows the following subset of things for a "pkg search puppet" (there are other things that aren't relevant, like a Nagios plugin and the like):

puppet37-3.7.5_1 Configuration management framework written in Ruby puppet38-3.8.4_1 Configuration management framework written in Ruby puppet4-4.4.1 Configuration management framework written in Ruby
puppetdb-2.3.8_1               PuppetDB storeconfigs backend
puppetdb-terminus-2.3.4_1 PuppetDB storeconfigs backend terminus module puppetdb-terminus4-4.0.0 PuppetDB storeconfigs backend terminus module
puppetdb4-4.0.0                PuppetDB storeconfigs backend
puppetserver-2.2.1             Puppet Server running in the JVM

None of these version numbers seem to align with the things I see being announced here -- do the packages being built here basically include the agent?

We have lots of nodes where we don't need a full puppet server, but I don't know how much code that would actually save. (Disk is cheap)
