Description Peter McNabb 2013-01-07 17:40:40 UTC
Description of problem:
Please update facter to the latest upstream.

Facter parses the output of ifconfig to get network information, but the output format of ifconfig changed in Fedora 17. The version of facter available in F17 repos does not handle the new output format, but it is fixed upstream. See puppet's redmine tracker for details:

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15001

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
facter-1.6.16-1.fc17 is broken, should be fixed in 1.6.17

Comment 1 Russell Harrison 2013-01-25 21:52:32 UTC
We have confirmed that the new version of facter does fix this issue.

Comment 2 Adam Miller 2013-02-06 21:40:10 UTC
This is confirmed on Fedora 18 also.

Comment 3 Russell Harrison 2013-03-07 17:31:11 UTC
How is the update for F17+ coming? I see it builds fine in koji and I've tested the packages on my machines to verify they're working.

Comment 4 Todd Zullinger 2013-03-19 15:48:00 UTC
I'm working on pushing 1.6.18 for fedora and epel today.

Comment 19 Lukas Zapletal 2014-10-20 10:30:39 UTC
Hello, I've backported additional fix for this issue into Fedora 19. Fact 'ipaddress' was okay, but 'ipaddress_eth0' and _XXX facts were not reported due the the very same incorrect parsing of ifconfig output.
