Puppet users - Oct 2014 - puppet-common 2.7.26 depends facter (<< 2.0)

I noticed today that the puppet-common 2.7.26 deb package for Ubuntu 
precise at

https://apt.puppetlabs.com/pool/precise/main/p/puppet/puppet-common_2.7.26-1puppetlabs1_all.deb

depends facter (<< 2.0) even though the facter page
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/facter/
says

"The currently supported Facter versions are 2.x and 1.7. Both versions 
work with Puppet 3.x and 2.7."

I've manually installed facter 2.2.0 (via dpkg) and it seems to work fine 
with puppet 2.7.26, so I'm confused by the dependency. Why is that there?

Thanks,
Brian
