(CPR-5) Move dmidecode from dependency to recommends #763
Conversation
👍 |
@stahnma if the goal is to make it not arch dependent, arch should be all instead of any |
CLA signed by all contributors. |
@haus updated |
Previously facter had a hard dependency on dmidecode. This made the debian package uninstallable on ARM based devices such as raspberry pi. This commit moves dmidecode from dependency to recommends. In nearly all cases dmidecode will still be pulled in, unless it can't be (as in the ARM case). This also moves the package from all (meaning any arch it can be built for) to any (meaning noarch). Note this is a packaging change only. Signed-off-by: Michael Stahnke <stahnma@puppetlabs.com>
@haus updated again removing arch specifics on the recommends. |
👍 |
@kylog feel free to merge if you are still 👍 after the recent changes |
Should this go on stable rather than master, or do we backport? |
@stahnma i think the next facter release planned is 2.2.0, so master is the right place |
Can we reference FACT-467 in the commit? May make release notes easier. |
Yeah master is fine. We'll be merging down Real Soon Now. |
Closed in favor of minor changes in #768 |
Thanks for the contribution! |
