Puppet master is a Ruby application that compiles configurations
for any number of Puppet agent nodes, using Puppet code and various
other data sources. (For more info, see Overview of Puppet's
Architecture.)
Puppet Server is an application that runs on the Java Virtual Machine
(JVM) and provides the same services as the classic Puppet master
application. It mostly does this by running the existing Puppet
master code in several JRuby interpreters, but it replaces some
parts of the classic application with new services written in
Clojure.
*/*: Deprecate discontinued OSS Puppet components
As announced in the [2025Q4] status report, the legacy ports for Open
Source Puppet (which were abandonned by Perforce following the
aquisition of Puppetlabs), are now deprecated and scheduled for removal
in a few months.
Switching from Puppet to OpenVox is relatively straightforward: when
installing the replacement for a deprecated component, pkg(8) will
detect a conflict between the legacy component and the new one and will
prompt you to remove the deprecated package, which is the right course
of action.
For more details, refer to the [2025Q4] status report.

Mk/**java.mk: Convert bsd.java.mk to USES
The following features have been added or changed:
- Instead of USE_JAVA use USES=java. This defaults to
USES=java:build,run if NO_BUILD is undefined. Else it defaults to
USES=java:run
- Instead of USE_ANT=yes use USES=java:ant which also implies
USES=java:build
- Instead of JAVA_BUILD=yes use USES=java:build. Does not imply run or
extract
- Instead of JAVA_EXTRACT=yes use USES=java:extract does not imply
build or run
- Instead of JAVA_RUN=yes use USES=java:run does not imply extract or
build
- Instead of USE_JAVA=<version> use USES=java and JAVA_VERSION=<version>

sysutils/puppetserver8: Fix logging and build aarch64 packages
Some changes in the Puppet Server recently broke logging. Ensure we
