HI ,
I installed https://apt.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-pc1-jessie.deb on an  [  Raspbian GNU/Linux 8.0 (jessie) ] and ran `apt-get update` and when I run `apt-get install puppet-agent` (or `puppetmaster`) I get this error:
Package puppet-agent is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source.


E: Package 'puppet-agent' has no installation candidate


Please if someone has any idea help !!!!

There are no arm packages available in this repository (see https://apt.puppetlabs.com/pool/jessie/PC1/p/puppet-agent/). It only contains packages for i386 and amd64. You could try to get the source package and build one for amr yourself.

HTH...

Don't know. Depends on your Raspi's speed.

However, I just found out that PuppetLabs doesn't provide source packages for puppet-agent (only for puppetserver). So it seems you're out of luck here. You could try to write a bug report and ask them to provide the needed packages.

Bye...
