Well, it works the same regardless of how it's installed. Anyway,
installation (from packages) on Linux depends on which distribution
family (RedHat or Debian) you're using. RedHat family distributions
(RedHat, CentOS) use the RedHat Package Manager (rpm) and its wrappers
yum and/or dnf for package management, while Debian family
distributions (Debian, Ubuntu) use the Debian package manager (dpkg,
with apt wrapped around it). The documentation contains detailed
instructions about how to install Puppet packages on either family. It
all boils down to

   1. Download and install a matching release package which will setup
the Puppetlabs package repository for your distribution/version and
desired Puppet version
   2. Use the native package manager to install Puppet server and/or
agent packages

For me, that's definitively Debian ;-)

Yes, the Puppet documentation:
