Hello. I have an environment in which the clients will likely be upgraded a lot before than the server, so I would like to see a backport as well. The puppet source package seems to build ok under wheezy provided you use dh-systemd, which is already in wheezy-backports. The only problem is that not all the dependencies are in wheezy. To summarize what I found so far: puppet-common depends on: ruby-augeas ruby-hiera ruby-safe-yaml ruby-augeas build-depends on gem2deb (>= 0.5.0~) which needs to be backported as well build-depends on libaugeas-dev (>= 1.0.0) which needs to be backported as well ruby-hiera is in testing but not in stable seems to build ok ruby-safe-yaml is in testing but not in stable build-depends on ruby-hashie which needs to be backported as well I can try to build and upload all this but if someone wants to take over or just help, that would be more than welcome.
