This release is a maintenance release of the 2.6.x series of Puppet.
This will likely be the last release in the 2.6.x series for Puppet,
now that 2.7 is out.
It''s also a little odd that we have two production releases on the
same day, but that''s just how it worked out.
This release is available for download at:
http://puppetlabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-2.6.9.tar.gz
See the Verifying Puppet Download section at:

affected version of 2.6.9

Todd, Do you have an ETA for 2.7.x RPMs in that repo by any chance?

Hi Derek, Derek J. Balling wrote:> Do you have an ETA for 2.7.x RPMs in that repo by any chance?I''d like to get 2.6.6 into EPEL and then update it to 2.6.9 before I move my fedorapeople repo to 2.7.x. I''ve not looked closely at 2.7.x yet, but I get the feeling that it''s not going to be an update we can push into EPEL. But maybe I''m mistaken about that. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts. --Henry Brooks Adams
