Bug #22100: Provide note in Ruby Release Notes Warning that it only affects you 
if you specifically opt for ruby1.9 instead of the default
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22100#change-98247

* Author: Bryan Quigley
* Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Category: documentation
* Target version: 
* Affected Puppet version: 3.2.1
* Keywords: Ubuntu Precise, Ruby version
* Branch: 
----------------------------------------
The release notes [1] seem to imply that Precise's version of Ruby won't work 
with Puppet 3.2.  This appears to not be true unless you manually switch over 
to Ruby1.9.x. (or another application forces that to be installed as the 
default ruby).  

The packages in apt.puppetlabs default to pulling in Ruby 1.8 which should work 
fine.

Full text of warning:
"Ruby Bug Warning: Ruby 1.9.3-p0 has bugs that cause a number of known issues 
with Puppet 3.2.0 and later, and you should use a different release. To the 
best of our knowledge, these issues were fixed in the second public release of 
Ruby 1.9.3 (p125), and we are positive they are resolved in p392 (which ships 
with Fedora 18). Unfortunately, Ubuntu Precise ships with p0 for some reason, 
and there’s not a lot we can do about it. If you’re using Precise, we recommend 
using Puppet Enterprise or installing a third-party Ruby package."
