- Upgrades on EL4-based systems are not supported.
- Upgrades on Fedora systems are not supported.
Newly identified issues:
- Mac OS X Open Source package upgrades are not yet implemented.
- AIX package names are based on PowerPC architecture version. PowerPC 8 is not yet supported.
- Upgrades between puppet-agent packages, such as 2015.2.x to 2015.3.x.
- Adds support for Solaris 11.
- The
pluginsyncsetting was deprecated inpuppet-agent 1.4.0. This module removes it when upgrading to that version or later unless otherwise managed. - Remove the lower-version requirement. All Puppet 3 versions potentially can be upgraded, although testing is only performed starting with Puppet/PE 3.8. Earlier versions likely work back to 3.5, as long as the manifest is compiled using 3.7+ with future parser enabled.
- Fixes the release identification for Amazon Linux distributions to use EL 6 packages.
- Fix Debian upgrades for PE.
- Support upgrades of 32-bit Windows packages for PE (via pe_repo).
