[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#724332: Problems with LC_ALL set to other than C

[Klaus Ethgen]

Package: facter
Version: 1.7.2-1
Severity: normal

On one system I have the locales set to de_DE; even for root. With that
settings I get the following from facter:
~> facter ipaddress

Setting it to C gives the following:
   ~> LC_ALL=C facter ipaddress
   xxx.xx.1.1

This is a regression as the version before didn't has this bug.
