I suspect this has more to do with Ruby than Puppet, but I know little about
Ruby and Google has failed me, so I'm asking here.
I'm finally getting some of our older systems brought into Puppet. I installed
it on several this morning without incident, but there are two (more or less
identical RHEL 5.3 systems) that throw horrible errors. These systems did not
have Puppet or Ruby installed prior to today.
# puppet --version

It seems that `facter` also poops its pants:

Ruby itself seems to run:
# ruby --version
ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [x86_64-linux]
But that's not much of a challenge and I don't know how to do anything more
complicated. Perhaps there's some boring Ruby one-liner I could try to see if
it's working?
