Gabriel Nagy commented on FACT-2772   Re: Facter in puppet 6.18.0-1 fails to prevent external facts from calling facter recursively (FACT-1373) Boris I cannot reproduce this with the latest Facter 3. If I remove --no-external-facts from the facter call it shows a warning but still doesn't recurse: Warning: Facter: external fact file "/opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/fact.rb" had output on stderr: 2021-10-04 10:38:30.349709 WARN puppetlabs.facter - external fact file "/opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/fact.rb" had output on stderr: 2021-10-04 10:38:29.918306 WARN puppetlabs.facter - Facter was called recursively, skipping external facts. Add '--no-external-facts' to silence this warning Warning: Facter: external fact file "/opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/fact.rb" had output on stderr: 2021-10-04 10:38:31.647756 WARN puppetlabs.facter - external fact file "/opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/fact.rb" had output on stderr: 2021-10-04 10:38:31.219910 WARN puppetlabs.facter - Facter was called recursively, skipping external facts. Add '--no-external-facts' to silence this warning Same with Facter 4. I tested this both with facter -p and puppet facts.
