[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#590498: interfaces does not include interfaces that do not end in a number

[martin f krafft]

Package: facter
Version: 1.5.7-1
Severity: normal

I rename all my interfaces to give them meaningful names, like "ext"
or "cable" or "wifi" or "int" or "dmz" etc.

facter seems to assume that a notable interface always ends in
a number. Hence, none of my interfaces turn up, nor does lo.

I don't think this assumption (interfaces end in numbers) is
reasonable anymore.
