Description

Bundle "fetchFusionTools" explores linux version basing on weak criterias. (In other places, things are doing well.)

Rudder agent 3.2.4-trusty0 (CFEngine Core 3.7.1) (prepackaged from http://www.rudder-project.org/apt-3.2/) @ Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS

#echo "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)" > /etc/redhat-release
#rudder agent run -v > rudder.log
…bundle fetchFusionTools
…
rudder  verbose: P:    Base context class: redhat
rudder  verbose: P:    Container path : '/default/rudder_system_directives/methods/'Rudder system policy: daily inventory/Inventory'/default/fetchFusionTools/packages/'curl'[0]'

Yes, it considers RHEL onboard (instead of ubuntu) and stucks with trying to implement yum!
Since now, inventory task newer succeeds (but reports are sending, but at each agent pass, despite reporting settings).

  • Why "/etc/redhat-release" on debian|ubuntu at all? Because of vendor's HW support "nuances"…
