Description Michael Moll freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2012-04-10 16:40:01 UTC 
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.

Fix: 

Remove the dependency.
How-To-Repeat: Try to install facter on e.g. sparc64.
