Issue #7670 has been updated by Nick Lewis. Status changed from In Topic Branch Pending Merge to Merged - Pending Release Assignee deleted (Ivan Porto Carrero)
Merged a fix for this to master in commit:97927e321d1e24554ad21b92ef4afb1bd64c0167. Our implementation will fall back to loading all facts if the fact can't be loaded by name. This is similar to what the facter application does. As for Ubuntu detection, it seems like looking at /etc/lsb-release is redundant with what the facts in lsb.rb do and was only helpful as a fallback. Now that we always properly load them, we should just use the lsb.rb facts. Similarly for operatingsystemrelease, which is really just Facter.value(:lsbrelease). I've opened #7722 to track that work. ---------------------------------------- Bug #7670: operatingsystem fact incorrect after clear on Ubuntu https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7670 Author: Ken Bowley Status: Merged - Pending Release Priority: Immediate Assignee: Category: library Target version: Keywords: Branch: ticket-7670 Affected Facter version: 1.5.9 Facter returns incorrect facts for "operatingsystem" and "operatingsystemrelease" after Facter.clear is called when running on Ubuntu. $ irb irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):002:0> require 'facter' => true irb(main):003:0> Facter["operatingsystem"].value => "Ubuntu" irb(main):004:0> Facter.clear => nil irb(main):005:0> Facter["operatingsystem"].value => "Debian" This causes puppet to report the wrong operatingsystem, and breaks many manifests on our current deployment. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
