Following https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-10247 , it seems that Puppet Labs is unable to make puppet running on distributions with ruby 2.7 such as (but not only) Ubuntu 20.04.

Although a major problem (unable to install gems) is said to have been fixed in 5.5.14, it seems as if Puppet Labs is not going to maintain and update puppet 5 anymore, and just maintains puppet 6.

Puppet 6 on the other hand is called incomplete by one of the commenters, and furthermore, requires JDK to run as a java applet on the server side instead of puppet master.

Looks as if Puppet Labs is not able to provide a running solution within reasonable time or for 20.04.1

That's really a problem since many people rely on having puppet for installation.
