Given that many system configuration files specify values in KB, rather than MB (I'm thinking of sysctls and /etc/security/limits.conf, off the top of my head), maybe that's a better default than MB(?) ---------------------------------------- Feature #2066: Make units optional https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2066#change-81614 Author: Sam Quigley Status: Merged - Pending Release Priority: Normal Assignee: Ruth Linehan Category: library Target version: 2.0.0 Keywords: intern Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/237 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... -sq -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
