Filled from a mail by @Andrew to Release-Engineering-Team
@Andrew is in the process of upgrading our various puppetmasters to modern versions. Before he takes the next step (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/392172/) he is trying to get a grip on the current level of breakage so he can tell what (if anything) is broken additionally by the new parser.
As of November 19th, there are 11 VMs in deployment-prep showing up with puppet errors or failures.
