Facter / Bug FACT-2732
OracleLinux 7 and Scientific Linux 7 OS facts incorrect in Facter 4.0.30
Issue Type: Bug Bug
Affects Versions: FACT 4.0.30
Assignee: Unassigned
Components: Facter 4
Created: 2020/07/29 9:52 AM
Environment:

OS(s): OracleLinux 7, Scientific Linux 7
Puppet Agent Version: 7.0.0
Priority: Normal Normal
Reporter: Ciaran McCrisken

The OS facts being reported for OracleLinux and Scientific Linux 7 look a bit suspect and are causing issues in the puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache, as it queries the OS Family fact to determine compatibility

OracleLinux 7

When using *Puppet 7 *(with Facter 4.0.30), we’re reporting the os facts as:

os => {
 
  architecture => "x86_64",
 
  family => "Ol",
 
  hardware => "x86_64",
 
  name => "Oracle",
 
  release => {
 
    full => "7.2",
 
    major => "7.2"
 
  },

However, on Puppet 6 (with Facter 3.14.12), these are the facts:

os => {
 
  architecture => "x86_64",
 
  family => "RedHat",
 
  hardware => "x86_64",
 
  name => "OracleLinux",
 
  release => {
 
    full => "7.2",
 
    major => "7",
 
    minor => "2"
 
  },

Scientific Linux 7

Puppet 7:

os => {
 
  architecture => "x86_64",
 
  family => "Rhel centos fedora",
 
  hardware => "x86_64",
 
  name => "Scientific",
 
  release => {
 
    full => "7.2",
 
    major => "7.2"
 
  },
 
  selinux => {
 
    enabled => false
 
  }
 
}

Puppet 6:

os => {
 
  architecture => "x86_64",
 
  family => "RedHat",
 
  hardware => "x86_64",
 
  name => "Scientific",
 
  release => {
 
    full => "7.2",
 
    major => "7",
 
    minor => "2"
 
  },
 
  selinux => {
 
    enabled => false
 
  }
 
}

Re: OracleLinux 7 and Scientific Linux 7 OS facts incorrect in Facter 4.0.30

Maybe we should add Oracle Linux to the os_hierarchy.json

Ciaran McCrisken the fix should be available in the next nightly build of puppet-agent-next. Please let me know if the issue is fixed and everything works as expected.
