OK. Time for a possibly silly question: How are you getting the name of the RPM into the Ruby code ?

Thanks Ygor, gold stars for you and pints of beer, unfortunately this still doesn't return the version to the fact. Do i have to pass the resulting string to a variable and then pass the variable back ?

Hi, Have written what I think is a simple fact to return the version of an installed RPM, but when I use the returned variable its blank so perhaps someone can point me in the write direction, or somone might know a better way to do this. Here is the fact :- require 'facter' Facter.add('rpmbversion') do setcode do Facter::Util::Resolution.exec("rpm -qia rpm_name | grep Version | sed 's/Version : //g' |cut -f1-5 -d' '") end end Thanks in Advance :) Richie. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
