Description
With facter 4 shipped with puppet 7.1 if the facter.conf file is invalid facter fails to load at all which prevents all subsequent puppet runs.
This means that instead of being able to fix the problem with a puppet run the administrator has to login to any affected server and fix the file by hand.
Would it be possible to fail "open" if the file is invalid? Log an error and run with all defaults? This would at least allow puppet to fix the problem on a subsequent run.
