I think we should definitely keep the source package named 
"puppet-agent" because this one only builds the agent whereas the old 
"puppet" 5.5 source package built both agent and server components.

As for the binary package I don't have a strong opinion either way, 
though its true that keeping the name "puppet" for the binary of puppet 
agent would at least avoid the need to update modules that manage the 
agent packages on Debian & family.
