Puppet in Debian
================

1. Differences from upstream Puppet
-----------------------------------

 - To comply with the Debian Policy Manual, the Puppet agent's default paths are
   different from those shipped by upstream (Puppetlabs). Rather than paths
   under /opt/puppetlabs, Puppet in Debian uses the following:

   * confdir: /etc/puppet
   * codedir: /etc/puppet/code
   * logdir: /var/log/puppet
   * moduledir: /usr/share/puppet/modules
   * vardir: /var/cache/puppet
   * ssldir: /var/lib/puppet/ssl

   The paths used by the puppet agent when running ad a non-root user also
   differ from upstream, storing files under ~/.puppet rather than ~/.puppetlabs

 - The default value for the "reports" setting in puppet.conf is "none"

2. System service
-----------------

The puppet-agent service is disabled by default on new installations. To enable
it installation, run

 `systemctl enable puppet-agent.service'

If you rely on other means for running puppet agent (e.g. cron), you should
leave the service disabled.
