Hi,

I'm sorry to keep bothering the release team, but there seems to be
one new issue that has come up in the puppet package that really
should be fixed for Squeeze, I really hope its the last.

Basically the puppet that is currently in Squeeze is supposed to
support a language feature called "parameterized classes", these are
in use by popular puppet modules, their usage is growing rapidly, and
is a documented language feature. Unfortunately, the version that we
have in Squeeze is broken in this regard, not supporting this is a
pretty big hit for the package in Squeeze, as the problems it uncovers
are non-trivial inheritance issues that are quite frustrating to
debug.

This is upstream bug #4534 [1] that was fixed in 2.6.3. We've got
2.6.2 in Squeeze, with various cherry-picked fixes from 2.6.3, but
this is one we are missing.

I've cherry-picked the fix for this[2], and it works well, not
exposing the bug any longer.

If I could bother you, hopefully one last time, to allow this fix into
Squeeze by doing an unblock puppet/2.6.2-4 it would be really
appreciated.

hopefully this will be the last you hear from me, thanks again!
Micah
