Bug Description
Binary package hint: puppet
Hi,
There are many versions of puppet, fortunately lucid (10.04) has a relatively new version (merely called legacy from puppetlabs).
Unfortunately it has a number of bugs / issues, one of which I have recently encountered is an underlying bug in Ruby (and OpenSSL) on Lucid.
However, the bug can be easily worked around, as noted two months after lucid's release.

Basically, upgrading to the latest available version of puppet in the 'legacy' series will resolve the issue.

Hi Anand, thanks for taking the time to file this bug report and help us make Ubuntu better.
Rather than bring in all of the patches from 0.25.5, its generally preferable to cherry pick patches for issues that are worthy of doing a Stable Release Update (SRU).
Annoying error messages may not be worth the trouble for an SRU, even though I do see that the patch is minimal and would not introduce a high potential for regression.
Anyway, I was just able to confirm it using the test case from puppet issue #3101. So marking Triaged, importance Low. Tagging 'bitesize' as the only step necessary is to add this patch to the package and follow the SRU process.
Nominating for Lucid as well.
