Package: src:facter
Severity: wishlist

Dear maintainer,

While puppet 6 still supports facter 3.x, I think it wouldn't be a bad
idea to package facter 4.x in the archive.

It seems the current version of puppet in Debian (puppet 5) requires the
3.x version though [1], so we can't just push 4.x to sid.

Considering facter 4.x is a re-write in ruby, I think the best option
would be to create a "facter4" package and keep facter in Debian as
"facter3".
