We are pleased to let you know we are currently working on creating RHEL 7 packages. We want to do a thorough testing of these packages, so we are taking our time with this platform. However, we still want to get the packages we do have into your hands. As such, we're going to be slowly populating the RHEL 7 repository on yum.puppetlabs.com for your consumption. Please, let us know if you run into any issues with the available packages by creating an issue at tickets.puppetlabs.com.

Johan,
Thanks for the quick feedback. We've been working on the dependencies repo for rhel 7 and it should be getting updated today and tomorrow.

I'm not going to create an issue just for that, since it's probably
known, but I couldn't install facter :

Package facter-1.7.5-1.x86_64.rpm is not signed

I'll try again it a little while, once puppet is there and once all
repos that are enabled by the release package actually exist :-)

But it's a good start, much appreciated!

Matthias

Hi Matthias,

The package should now be signed. Thanks for reporting that!

Hello Puppetlabs!

I have been trying to track RHEL 7 readiness for my organization and a primary component of this is working Puppet on RHEL 7. 

Just a suggestion, but it would be very nice if PuppetLabs had some sort of roadmap page that could be referred to for checking overall readiness for RHEL 7 and subsequent Redhat releases.  That way we could easily track intermediate statuses and speculate on how many days/weeks out we might be from fully populated repos rather than cross referencing package lists in my Satellite channels for puppet 6 & puppet 7.

Thanks!

Hi PuppetLabs,
Any more word on the RHEL 7 effort?  I'm a little surprised that EL7 is so far into beta and we still don't have much in http://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/7/.
Thanks,

Kodiak,
Puppet 3.5.0 is currently in RC and should go final soon. Are there
packages you are looking for besides Puppet itself?

Hi Matthaus, and thanks for the reply!

We are looking to run RHEL 7 clients during Redhat's beta to prepare for the general release.  We'll be upgrading our RHEL 6 Puppet Master to 3.4.3 shortly but don't plan to upgrade the Puppet Master to RHEL 7 any time soon. 

Will the version skew of a 3.4.3-1 Puppet Master and a 3.5.0 Puppet client cause problems?  I've seen in many places that the master should always be at an equal or higher rev than all clients.  If this remains the case, and you cannot ship 3.4.3 for RHEL 7 this means substantial overhead in standing up another Puppet Master for RHEL 7 clients which we would very much like to avoid.

Thanks again!
 - Kodiak

Kodiak,
A Puppet 3.4.3 master should have no problems supporting a Puppet
3.5.0 client, and if it does it is a bug that you should raise with
us.

Great to know - we'll keep a keen eye out for EL7 puppet 3.5.0.

Thanks again,
