sure if it's book material.

Well we have lfs-release and not os-release now. I'm not sure what this
fork adds. Right now it only copies a couple of files.
Do you have any insight?

/etc/os-release is used by systemd to identify the distro. This version
still uses /etc/lsb-release, and is newer than the one currently in the
book. Besides that, I have no arguments on why it should be updated,
hence why I posted here first.
