---------------------------------------- Bug #17644: illegal option – p in 'hardwareisa' fact on Windows with Cygwin installed https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17644#change-76718 Author: Reid Vandewiele Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 1.6.x Keywords: windows uname hardwareisa Branch: Affected Facter version: 1.6.14 Because the hardwareisa fact is not confined in any way, if there exists an executable "uname" command (or "uname.exe" in the case of Windows) anywhere in the path this fact will run. On Windows this bug manifests if Cygwin is installed and Cygwin binaries are available in the path. For example, in the described Cygwin scenario Facter might output the following error message: D:\UnixTools\uname.EXE: illegal option – p Try ‘d:\UnixTools\uname.EXE –help’ for more information. The hardwareisa fact should be confined with more than a simple check to see if an appropriately named binary exists anywhere on the system.
