Actually I am using puppet as a standalone.

I ran 
*wget http://apt.puppetlabs.com/puppet6-release-focal.deb*
*dpkg -i puppet6-release-focal.deb *
*apt update*

then when I ran 
*apt install puppet-agent*
This was the error

Package puppet-agent is not available, but is referred to by another 
package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'puppet-agent' has no installation candidate

and when I ran 
apt install puppet it again installed
*puppet -V*
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/util.rb:461: warning: URI.escape is 
obsolete
5.5.10

Few questions
What is the difference between puppet and puppet-agent
What is the difference between puppet in apt universe and the puppet 
installed after adding the given repo.
