Very close, and extremely helpful, thanks. I think my other question might 
not have been clear. It appears there are separate "hiera" and 
"hiera-puppet" packages (the latter being the one with the 1.0.0rc1 
designation) in the puppetlabs devel apt repo. 
See http://apt.puppetlabs.com/pool/lucid/devel/h/ for what I mean. I was 
under the impression that hiera-puppet contained the glue code between 
puppet 3.x and hiera 1.x. Am I correct that 2.7.x users do not need to 
install it? 

If this is the case, it seems like it makes more sense to pull hiera 1.0.0 
from github rather than try to get it from the devel apt repo. At least 
until a hiera package gets blessed into the non-devel repos. Does that 
sound right to you?

Thanks for your help.
