---------------------------------------- Bug #6470: Ubuntu server architecture detected as "x86_64" while it should be "amd64" https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6470 Author: Dom Rivard Status: Duplicate Priority: Normal Assignee: Adrien Thebo Category: library Target version: 1.5.9 Keywords: Branch: it seems to be the same issue as this ticket [[http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4980]] but with another distro<br/> We are running Ubuntu servers and the fact architecture return this: architecture => x86_64<br/> operatingsystem => Ubuntu<br/> puppetversion => 2.6.4<br/> facterversion => 1.5.8<br/> I would expect the architecture fact to return amd64<br/> in the file facter/architecture.rb<br/> # line 9 when "Debian", "Gentoo", "GNU/kFreeBSD" # I would suggest when "Debian", "Gentoo", "GNU/kFreeBSD", "Ubuntu" # it would look like this Facter.add(:architecture) do confine :kernel => [:linux, :"gnu/kfreebsd"] setcode do model = Facter.value(:hardwaremodel) case model # most linuxen use "x86_64" when "x86_64" case Facter.value(:operatingsystem) when "Debian", "Gentoo", "GNU/kFreeBSD", "Ubuntu" "amd64" else model end when /(i[3456]86|pentium)/ case Facter.value(:operatingsystem) when "Gentoo" "x86" else "i386" end else model end end end This would be helpful while installing package through dpkg and for custom build packages<br/> For now I created a custom fact to overcome this issue require 'facter' if Facter.value(:architecture) == "x86_64" packagearchitecture = "amd64" else packagearchitecture = "i386" end # # Get the DEBian package architecture that needs to be install # ex: i386, amd64 # Facter.add('packagearchitecture') do setcode do packagearchitecture end end Thank you! -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
