Package: puppetmaster
Version: 3.7.2-1
Severity: important
Usertags: tails-...@boum.org

Dear Maintainers,

When upgrading a puppet master from Wheezy to Jessie, it's not possible
anymore to use the `storeconfigs` option, which is required for manifests to
use exported resources. This lead to have to rewrite the manifests to get
rid of them, often in a ugly and hackish way.

That's because in puppet 3.x, a switch has been made upstream from
activerecord to puppetdb as a backend for catalog storage and searching.

It seems that puppetdb is not packaged into Debian at the moment. There's
an open RFP for it at #673515, and upstream has a Debian package at
apt.puppetlabs.com.

This looks like a regression, which either need to be fixed before the
Jessie release, or documented in the release notes, but the last option
will probably bring a lot of hassle to sysadmins.

bert.
