Eric Sorenson commented on an issue   Re: No EC2 facts shown on newly-built Amazon Linux host Hi, thanks for all the feedback/comments on this – we have been blocking specific fact enhancements for Facter pending the development of structured facts and Facter 2's release. That's headed out the door this week, so we can restart bug/feature work. Given the amount of interest on this bug, I'm going to suggest we pull it in at the top of the list. One question for the watchers/people affected by the problem: If the mac address test is not valid for VPC instances, is there another test which would be? As Ethan Brown noted there's a lot of back-and-forth on Redmine #7559 and it will be important not to regress or ignore the lessons from that earlier attempt. Add Comment   Facter / FACT-185 No EC2 facts shown on newly-built Amazon Linux host `facter|grep ec2` yields only the 'domain' and 'fqdn' facts for me, not a gaggle of them including stuff like 'ec2_profile'. The same versions on another host are working fine. Any tips on troubleshooting? An strace isn't showing anything promising to me, although it confirms that it's firing up the ec2.rb library.
