>Description:
sysutils/facter always depends on dmidecode, which is only available for x86 and ia64. After removing the dependency everything runs fine also on sparc64, only a few hardware-related facts are missing.

Maybe the dependency could be conditionalized as an OPTION or only pulled in when running on platforms which are supported by dmidecode.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to install facter on e.g. sparc64.
>Fix:
Remove the dependency.
