Welcome back to the Puppet release cycle - brought to you by the newly minted Puppet Labs.

The 0.25.5 release is a maintenance release in the
0.25.x branch. It contains a number of bug fixes but also some performance enhancements including speed-ups to Puppet's graphing.

The release candidate is available at:

http://puppetlabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.25.5rc1.tar.gz

Please note that all final releases of Puppet are signed with the
Reductive Labs key (we'll issue a new, improved Puppet Labs key after the Rowlf release).

See the Verifying Puppet Download section at http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Downloading_Puppet

Please test this release candidate and report feedback via the
Puppet Labs Redmine site:

http://projects.puppetlabs.com

Please select an affected version of 0.25.5rc1.

RELEASE NOTES

The default location for Puppet's dynamic files, the $vardir option, has changed from /var/puppet to /var/lib/puppet. This is already the default for the Fedora EPEL and Debian/Ubuntu packages and brings Puppet into FHS compliance.

You can now specify checksum => none in the file type to disable file check-summing.
