Hi, I observe the issue ,that by turning pluginsync on, it is no more
possible to store module specific facts to /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/. If
some module has distributed some facts by File[] to
/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/ (at the puppet server this facts are not in
modulepath/lib/facter, but somewhere else), then a run with pluginsync
would remove such facts from there. It is possible to avoid this? Is it
possible to add custom facts by File to /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/. ?

Regards Dimitri

    Why do you distribute facts with the file type?

    You should not be distributing facts using file{}, pluginsync can distribute
    all facts when they are stored in the modules lib dir

    because we have facts, that are module specific and only hosts should get
    them, that include this module. Pluginsync distribute ALL facts, doesn't
    matter if the modue is included in host configuration or not. Thats why we
    are diong it currenlty with File{}.
