Slightly off-topic, but FWIW I would be happy to see raring's puppet
(whatever version that ends up being) in precise-backports.
lucid-backports has puppet 2.7 and that made my life a LOT easier since
my puppetmaster runs precise and I am using some recent modules. Having
backports available but not installed by default is really quite nice.
Furthermore it's quite likely that at some point I'll have some clients
running a newer Ubuntu than the puppetmaster, and it would be great to
be able to support it just by upgrading puppetmaster to a backports
version.

While we're at it, why is etckeeper stuff in the package?  The Puppetlabs
guys said because it's in Debian's package and "Debian packagers are
fruitbats", so they're imitating "for compatibility."

I know Nigel Kirsten and Andrew Pollock, so if there is stuff wrong in
the debian packaging I am happy to chat with them.


I'm just relaying what I got from #puppet on freenode. There seems to be no purpose to hooking etckeeper--at least, none that warrants hooking it into puppet by default.
