Solaris (8 and 10) have neither lsb_release nor xdg-open as standard.
Same probably applies to BSD.
:-) That doesn't come as a surprise considering that they are "Linux"
Standards Base.
These parts are not terribly linux specific, and deal with desktop systems
that are commonly used on BSD too. The "Linux" part is more branding between
the big commercial desktops than that it is about operating systems.
It's particularly disappointing in the case of the xdg* utilities, which
are supposed to be applicable to any unix system with a mainstream
desktop. Hell, they could even be shimmed onto Windows.
