Public bug reported:
The puppetmaster package if installed from apt drags down puppet. This
is not only unnecessary but it borks the permissions of
/var/lib/puppet... to the package maintainer:
puppetd runs as root because it does the actual changing of config files
puppetmasterd runs as user puppet because there is no need for this daemon to
have root privileges, it just needs to read some data to pass to the clients
(puppets).
I guess puppet used to behave differently prior to this release, but
this package looks to be a little messed up here...
** Affects: puppet (Ubuntu)
