    An update that has three recommended fixes can now be installed.

    Description:


    This update provides Puppet 4 client for the Advanced Systems Management
    12 Module.

    The Puppet Server package for SLES is provided by upstream now and can be
    downloaded at https://yum.puppetlabs.com/sles/12/PC1/x86_64/

    For a period of 6 months after the release of the Puppet 4 package, SUSE
    will continue to provide and support packages for Puppet 3. SUSE will not
    support the migration of the server package.

    Before updating the client packages to version 4, see the prerequisites
    listed at https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.8/ (Section "Installing and
    upgrading", Subsection "Upgrade: From Puppet 3.x").
