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

[rustx]

Hi Robie,

Do you have any update concerning this matter ?
I went to check the IRC channel at #Ubuntu, and infinity told me it was just a 'pet bug' which was not worth being looked into.
With that reply, be sure II won't try to get more information on the IRC any more now, and will  be waiting for your update,
Thank you for your reply.

Regards,

Bug description:
  On ubuntu 12.04 LTS, the official version for the facter package is
  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.

  model name : Common KVM processor

  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
