Issue #2066 has been updated by Theo Cabrerizo Diem.
Is there any update on this issue ?
I'm running puppet 2.7.9 and facter 1.6.4 and such facts with units are quite
useless as they are :(
#puppet apply -e 'notice($::memorysize)' -v
notice: Scope(Class[main]): 989.92 MB
# puppet apply -e 'notice($::memorysize / 2)' -v
left operand of / is not a number at line 1 on node blabla.mydomain

Bug #2066: Make units optional

Target version: 2.0.0

Affected Facter version:
For memory facts (and maybe other stuff?), Facter currently uses the largest
unit it can (kb/mb/gb/tb), and only prints two decimal places of accuracy. On
some of my systems, this means that the facts reported by facter are slightly
wrong -- and it also introduces a bit of complexity into any program that wants
to make use of these facts, since they have to translate back into
machine-readable units...
It'd be nice if there were an option to make facter report bytes instead...
