My biggest concern is that 2.6 will not get security updates for the
lifetime of EPEL 5 and 6. To me it seems better to bite the bullet
As I understand it, Puppet Labs is still providing security updates for the
2.6 series.
This is the main problem I see with parallel-installable packages,
particularly in EPEL - it seems to give users an assumption that the
old packages are fine.
We should cross that bridge when the old packages aren't fine anymore.
