Hello, Scott! It is a prudent decision.
Aécio Pires Book of Puppet => novatec.com.br/livros/puppet Book of Zabbix => novatec.com.br/livros/zabbix 2018-01-02 19:43 GMT-03:00 Scott Garman <scott.gar...@puppet.com>: > Hi all, > > Some of you have probably noticed that our latest official puppet-agent > release for Ubuntu was for version 16.10 "Yakkety", which is currently end > of life and no longer supported. Due to the short lifecycle of non-LTS > Ubuntu releases (9 months), and the backlog that the Puppet Platform OS > team is working on, we've made the decision to no longer release official > puppet-agent builds for non-LTS Ubuntu releases. > > I will note however that so far it has been possible to use the LTS 16.04 > "Xenial" puppet-agent package on Ubuntu 17.04 and 17.10, they're just not > officially supported.
