I was able to get the latest puppet from unstable without it messing
with anything else. I warn you that I don't understand this all that
well and this is largely based on Google + trial and error, but it
seems to work well.
My /etc/apt/preferences looks like this:
Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 900
Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 700
Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 600
And I added these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list (adjust to point to
your local mirror):
# Testing and Unstable (low priority)
deb http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ testing main non-free
deb-src http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ testing main
non-free
deb http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ unstable main non-
free
deb-src http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ unstable main
non-free
Then you can run:
aptitude update
aptitude install puppet/unstable
# or
aptitude install puppetmaster/unstable

Don't try to tell me a thing is important to you if the whole of your
"support" entails forcing other to spend time and money on it.
