Is there any 3rd party repositories that keeps up to date puppet client versions? I am looking for a puppet 2.6.4 .deb package?

puppet packages deb

  1. If by "third party" you mean "not the puppet developers", Launchpad has one for Natty Narwhal; the "Published versions" sections has links for e.g. puppet 2.6.4-2ubuntu1 in i386, puppet 2.6.4-2ubuntu1 in amd64.

  2. Official up to date version can be found from Debian Wheezy (testing) repository at http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/puppet.

    You don't mention the distribution you use, but here's instructions for Debian Squeeze.

    How to use up to date version of Puppet in Debian Squeeze (stable)?

    Create a file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20release with content:

    APT::Default-Release "stable";

    Create a file /etc/apt/preferences.d/20puppet with content:

    Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 1

Package: puppet
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: puppet-common
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: puppetmaster
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: puppetmaster-common
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 1001

    Create a file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/20testing.list with content:

    deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main

    Run:

    apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
