I think I found a bug in facter in 3.8.2 but wanted to ask here before opening a PL ticket.
Basic description is that facter has different behaviors if you run it without vs. with a fact specified. To recreate: # echo 'foo = bar' > /etc/facter/facts.d/foo.txt # facter | grep foo foo => bar # facter foo # Net effect is that if you have spaces around the = sign in your custom fact definitions, the server doesn't match at all. It seems to look up by name, which returns nothing (or a blank line, or a space - it's hard to tell which) Workaround is to have no spaces around the = sign, but I think this is a bug needing fixing. The behavior should be the same when you run "facter | grep foo" and "facter foo" shouldn't it ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
