Issue #20236 has been updated by Matthaus Owens.

Target version changed from 1.7.1 to 1.7.2

1.7.1 is only going to have a single bugfix, so this will need to wait for 1.7.2

Bug #20236: Facter does not consult dmidecode if lspci is present
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20236#change-90472

* Author: Jeff McCune
* Status: Merged - Pending Release
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Category: virtual
* Target version: 1.7.2
* Keywords: 
* Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/429
* Affected Facter version: 1.6.18
----------------------------------------
### Overview

When Facter executes lspci and is unable to determine the virtual platform from 
the output, dmidecode is never consulted.  This is a problem because there are 
situations where the information sufficient to determine the virtual platform 
is contained in the output of dmidecode, but not the output of lspci.

### Expected Behavior

`dmidecode` is consulted when trying to determine the virtual platform, 
regardless of if lspci is present or not.

### Actual Behavior

When `lspci` is present, `dmidecode` is never executed.

Steps to reproduce:  Stub out `lspci` such that it returns unrelated 
information and stub out `dmidecode` such that it returns relevant and useful 
information.  Observe that `dmidecode` is never consulted.
