[Bug 546677] Re: puppet should recommend etckeeper

[Thierry Carrez]

At this point we shouldn't force etckeeper on every puppet system... A
"Suggests" looks good to me. However puppet needs to be fixed so as to
gracefully make use of etckeeper if present, but not fail in any way if
it's not...

Bug description:
Binary package hint: puppet

Puppet needs to depend or at least recommend etckeeper, it fails to load silently because puppet.conf reads:
prerun_command=/etc/puppet/etckeeper-commit-pre
postrun_command=/etc/puppet/etckeeper-commit-post
