I've opened another one to ask upstream to make a new release:

https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-mode/issues/117

... in the meantime, I think we shouldn't package 0.3 directly. It's
really old (5 years!) and there's been good stuff packaged since.

So I would recommend packaging a snapshot instead, something like
"0.3+git7dee1b5" for example. It's not ideal because git revisions don't
increment, but hopefully the above issue will be fixed and that would be
just a temporary hack.

Alternatively, I could just upload 0.3 as is, but I would honestly not
use it myself since I want the latest features and bugfixes. This would
defeat the purpose of the package in first place... ;)

Thanks for the extremely quick response and packaging anyways, you're
doing an awesome job. :)
