Issue #6679 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.
True. We went through this pain before when we moved from identifying Ubuntu as "debian" -> "ubuntu". So... Is it worth identifying SL separately? ---------------------------------------- Bug #6679: Facter 1.5.8 does not identify Scientific Linux https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6679 Author: James Goddard Status: Re-opened Priority: Low Assignee: Category: library Target version: 1.5.9 Keywords: operatingsystem Branch: https://github.com/jamtur01/facter/tree/ticket/master/6679 I just started playing with Scientific Linux 6.0, and the first thing I have noticed is that the operatingsystem fact has no flag for this distro. The relevant file is /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/operatingsystem.rb, and as a first draft, I have added a clause for it (and attached): 39,40d38 < elsif txt =~ /scientific/i < "Scientific" Thanks, Jim Goddard -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
