Facter 4.4.2

Released August 2023 and shipped with Puppet8.2.0.

Resolved issues

  • Facter 4 reports os.name as "SLES_SAP" on Suse Linux for SAP instead of just "SUSE". This along with FACT-3422 fixed how Facter reads the /etc/os-release file. os.name and os.distro facts work on SLES SAP operating system now. FACT-3162
  • Facter fails on mountpoints fact on Solaris 10 with non-global zones which have NFS mounts. Fixed an issue with the Solaris mountpoint resolver. FACT-3187
  • Error on on Solaris non-global zone after upgrading to PE2021.7.2.Facter guards against nil when determining the primary interface for the networking fact. FACT-3188
  • Don't rescue NoMethodError. When rescuing LoadError and NameErrors, Facter logs a descriptive message at an error level so debugging Facter will be easier and error messages will not be hidden in the debug level. FACT-3207
