Testing this again with Jessie master and client: the puppetmaster
starts just fine, but running `puppet agent --test' on the client
leads to:

Warning: Unable to fetch my node definition, but the agent run will continue:
Warning: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not retrieve facts for jenkins.lizard: undefined method `verify_active_connections!' for ActiveRecord::Base:Class
Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: undefined method `verify_active_connections!' for ActiveRecord::Base:Class
Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run

Now, I've just found out that installing ruby-activerecord on the
client fixes this problem.

This was not needed on Wheezy for exported resources to work,
so maybe we should add `Recommends: ruby-activerecord' in the
puppet binary package, and/or mention it in NEWS.Debian?

Cheers,
