puppet module dependency both met and unmet

I'm getting a warning from puppet about an unmet dependency, and yet it appears the dependency is met. I'm more than a bit confused about this error message. Can anyone offer any tips or pointers?

ubuntu@seine2:/vagrant$ sudo puppet module list
Warning: Missing dependency 'puppet-yum':
  'puppet-collectd' (v5.2.0) requires 'puppet-yum' (>= 0.9.15)
Warning: Missing dependency 'puppetlabs-apt':
  'puppet-collectd' (v5.2.0) requires 'puppetlabs-apt' (>= 2.2.0)
/etc/puppet/modules
├── golja-gnupg (v1.2.3)
├── jfryman-nginx (v999.999.999)
├── maestrodev-rvm (v1.13.1)
├── puppet-collectd (v5.2.0)
├── puppet-staging (v2.0.1)
├── puppet-yum (v0.9.15)
├── puppetlabs-apt (v2.3.0)
├── puppetlabs-concat (v2.2.0)
├── puppetlabs-firewall (v1.8.1)
├── puppetlabs-mysql (v3.10.0)
├── puppetlabs-stdlib (v4.14.0)
├── puppetlabs-vcsrepo (v1.5.0)
├── saz-locales (v2.2.2)
└── saz-memcached (v2.8.1)
/usr/share/puppet/modules (no modules installed)
ubuntu@seine2:/vagrant$

Note that puppet-yum is already at the required 0.9.15 and puppetlabs-apt is at 2.3.0 which is greater than the 2.2.0 required.

Ah, this is a bug.

It is reported at #17251 and as is also discussed here.

It has been fixed in puppet 4.0.0, but I am using (ubuntu 16.04 LTS) 3.8.5.

I am still somewhat unclear if the warnings matter (besides being quite ugly). I think the answer is that they don't, simply because I haven't had anything fail yet.
