Puppet release 0.25.5 is now available!

Below are the release notes:

The default location for Puppet's dynamic files, the $vardir option, has changed from /var/puppet to /var/lib/puppet. This is already the default for the Fedora EPEL and Debian/Ubuntu packages and brings Puppet into FHS compliance.

You can now specify checksum => none in the file type to disable file check-summing.

The default factpath is now $vardir/lib/facter/.

The generate function now sets the working directory to the directory containing the specified command.

The "warning: Value of 'preferred_serialization_format' ('pson') is invalid, using default ('yaml')" is now a debug level message.

The "use_cached_catalog" option is available. This determines whether to only use the cached catalog rather than compiling a new catalog on every run. Puppet can be run with this enabled by default and then selectively disabled when a recompile is desired. The option defaults to false.

The certificate_revocation option is now available. Setting it to false disables certification revocation (see #3640). The default setting is true.
