I'm not decided yet if I'll unblock the package (because I didn't finish the
review yet) but I noticed something (that looks) odd (to me) in the Depends
field. So, facter depends on:

        Depends: ruby1.8 (>= 1.8.7.72-3lenny1), net-tools, bind9-host | host,
libopenssl-ruby1.8 | libopenssl-ruby1.9

Why does it depend on "libopenssl-ruby1.8 | libopenssl-ruby1.9" when it
has a
strong dependency on ruby1.8? I tend to think that putting
"libopenssl-ruby1.9"
as an alternative dependency is wrong in this case. (icbw though)
