Puppet 3.8.2 available

[Kylo Ginsberg]

Puppet 3.8.2 is a bug fix release (with future parser changes) in the Puppet 3.8 series.

The main focus of this release is to make sure the 3.8 future parser is forward-compatible with the Puppet language as of Puppet 4.2. It also add some new reserved keywords (if using the future parser) and it fixes several bugs.

Check out the release notes for more information:  

https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3.8/reference/release_notes.html#puppet-382

You can see the full list of changes on the release's JIRA page:

Hi,

there seems to be no package for Debian 8 (Jessie) on apt.puppetlabs.com.
Neither in the jessie dist tree nor testing, where Puppet 3.8.1 for jessie could be found previously.

Is this a mistake or will they be added later?

Regards,
Stefan

This is not a mistake. Because Puppet 3.x is an old release series, we are not adding support for new platforms. If you want the latest versions of puppet for Debian Jessie, you will need to switch to Puppet 4 by enable the PC1 repo [1] and installing the puppet-agent package. Please note this is a breaking change and should not be taken lightly. Check out some of our documentation [2] for more information the best way to upgrade.
