puppet (2.7.12-3) unstable; urgency=low

  This version of puppetmaster, only provides a single threaded puppet master.
  This has been the default configuration. If you have not configured the
  puppet master to run several processes with mongrel, nothing has changed.

  The "mongrel" package is being removed from Debian, so we no provide
  configuration for it.  Support for mongrel has been removed from
  /etc/defaults/puppetmaster and /etc/init.d/puppetmaster.

  If you need better performance, please install the "puppetmaster-passenger"
  package.  Note that this implies installation of the apache2 web server.

  There are other options, although not provided by the puppet packaging team.
  Consider looking to the "thin" package for a more or less direct replacement
  for "mongrel".

puppet (2.6.1~rc3-1) experimental; urgency=low

  Some packages recommended by the puppetmaster package are now suggested
  instead, since they are not needed for the default operation of the
  puppetmaster package.  This means they are not installed by default.

  The packages affected are "libldap-ruby1.8", used for external nodes in LDAP,
  "rdoc", which is used by puppet doc, and "rails", which is used for stored
  configurations.

  If you need this functionality, please install the packages explicitly.
