I'm noticing that 2.7 is still the version of Puppet in Raring; however,
version 3.0 was released October 1, 2012, before release of 12.04:

Does this package currently not have a maintainer, or is it just slow in
Debian as well?
3.0 is an important release. (Every Puppet release is an important
release; Puppet is rather volatile.) New features include integration
of Hiera and deprecation of stored configurations in favor of PuppetDB
for the same task. Also the kick feature is deprecated in favor of
mcollective. Deprecated features still work, but the transition must be
made before they become non-existent. You cannot jump from 2.7 to future
3.5 without pain; 3.0 still allows some things that are going away, but
provides their replacements, so you can move smoothly.
