Sorry @aboe76 don't mean to labour the point, I'm just wondering why - I'm not conscious of a specific Facter constraint, and would love to know what that is. Where abouts in the Rakefile does it limit it to facter 1.6.8? I'm mainly curious if this is a puppetdb requirement or a puppet thing, if so its up to puppet 2.7.12 and above to have a constraint on the version for facter.

What is also interesting to me, is the pe-facter constraint right about this line states >= 1.6.2, if there is a reason for a constraint on 1.6.8 - then we should probably fix the pe-facter one as well (you don't have to necessarily - but someone will have to and thats important to me :-).
