Arch Linux (my distro) is spread and not a small based distro, so lsb is not the way, only LSB based distro's are. But the original person that asked the question should explain better what he is looking for. It might not require to detect the distro itself for example, or to allow the package builder to tweak things, or at the first run to ask the distro from a list of supported distro and save it in configuration files. It's all depends on what he requires to do. > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > $ lsb_release --help > > Usage: lsb_release [options] > > > > Options: > > -h, --help show this help message and exit > > -v, --version show LSB modules this system supports > > -i, --id show distributor ID > > -d, --description show description of this distribution > > -r, --release show release number of this distribution > > -c, --codename show code name of this distribution > > -a, --all show all of the above information > > -s, --short show all of the above information in short format > > > > > -- > Regards, > - Graeme - > > > _______________________________________________ > fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit > http://fpgui.sourceforge.net > > -- > _______________________________________________ > Lazarus mailing list > Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org > http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus >
