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.
