Thanks Nick for the pointer, I have now installed the 
puppetlabs-release-pc1-jessie.deb package from apt.puppetlabs.com and I am 
trying to install PuppetDB with the following command:

sudo puppet resource package puppetdb ensure=latest

Unfortunately I get the following a dependency error message which I have 
copied below. I suppose I have to install a specific version of PuppetDB in 
order to work with Debian's version 3.7 of Puppet, but which one?

Regards
J.


Error: Could not update: Execution of '/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o 
DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install puppetdb' returned 100: Reading

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 puppetdb : Depends: puppet (>= 3.8.1-1puppetlabs1) or
                     puppet-agent but it is not going to be installed
            Depends: puppet (< 5.0.0-1puppetlabs1) or
                     puppet-agent but it is not going to be installed
