I just set up a couple 4.0.0 virtual machines, trying to follow the
installation instructions as-written on the website, and found some
confusing things.
First - can somebody explain why you're referring to the software in docs
with one version (4.0.0) and you have a very different versioning for the
rpm/deb packages....and then the --version strings of the various utilities
in /opt/puppetlabs/bin report something very different from either the
4.0.0 version 'or' the rpm/deb package versions.
Is there a reason you're not packaging for the various distros using the
same version identifiers your code and docs seem to use ? Seems like a
gratuitous obfuscation to me. Why would you possibly have their major
versions so different from what 'foo --version' reports ?

The Puppet Agent package contains all of the elements needed to run
puppet, including ruby, facter, hiera and mcollective.

# mco --version

Also your 4.0 docs have lots of pointers back to 3.7 info, which is also
pretty confusing, as well as having links that don't resolve.
- https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/4.0/reference/system_requirements.html
(in the main body) 'pre-install tasks' doesn't resolve, but it does
resolve in the menu on the left
- https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/4.0/reference/install_linux.html
points to 3.7 docs for the bottom half-dozen links
Lastly, when installing the agent system, it didn't register the cert
request with the master until I ran agent with --test and 'then' started
the agent with puppet itself.
