Issue #17029 has been updated by Matthaus Owens. Status changed from Merged - Pending Release to Closed
Released in Facter 1.7.0 ---------------------------------------- Feature #17029: Gentoo linux should properly be it's own osfamily https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17029#change-89620 * Author: Joshua Hoblitt * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: 1.7.0 * Keywords: osfamily gentoo * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/336 * Affected Facter version: ---------------------------------------- Presently, osfamily on gentoo linux is set by the default handler to just 'Linux'. This isn't very helpful when doing a case statement on $osfamily in puppet to select package names as your forced into nesting a check for $operatingsystem = "Gentoo". Gentoo truly is a family as there are many derivatives in the wild although there don't seem to be any unit tests for these operatingsystems in the facter tree. Including at last these members: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Gentoo_Linux_derivatives I'm planning to submit a pull request to add Gentoo as it's own osfamily. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
