[Bug 1170325] Re: Facter 1.6.X not considering Qemu/KVM virtual type

[rustx]

Hi Robie,

This bug was not fixed in 13.04, as the integrated version of facter is
:

 facter_1.6.9-2ubuntu1

I could check the source code for this package, and the bug is still
there, only showing "QEMU Virtual CPU" in
facter-1.6.9/lib/facter/util/virtual.rb

The upstream version that releases it is facter 1.7.0, and the exact
commit that fixes this bug in the upstream release is the following one
:

https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/commit/5c653e98e97ba8e83a46b8e0c1fd72dfe672964b

I hope I could provide you the information you were looking for.

Regards,

  1.6.5-ubuntu1.

  ii facter 1.6.5-1ubuntu1 collect and display facts about the system

  The is_virtual? method is not recognized on last version of KVM,
  because of the output of /proc/cpuinfo, which does not contains “Qemu
  Server” Infos.

  The workaround was added in the next versions of facter, and so I
  would like to provide you this patch, which fixes this bug on Ubuntu
