That's what happens when online resources are removed. :/

librarian-puppet 1.0.x uses "https://forge.puppetlabs.com/api/v1/" , which is
no longer available.  Instead, "https://forgeapi.puppetlabs.com/v3/" has taken
its place.

There is a new librarian-puppet release which uses the new API.  Unfortunately,
this introduces a dependency on two unpackaged gems, "puppet_forge", which
again depends on "her", so these must be packaged first.

I've reduced severity to "serious", matching the description at
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities — It really matches
"important", since it works with modules from git, but I think it still is
unsuitable for release.
