And the value of this is?
We have already run into situations where one distro has multiple
different kernel versions (the grossest comparison: 2.4 vs. 2.6). This
can cause problems, for example, with packages that use threads.
Then $(uname -r) is usable, but hardly ideal. Better may be proper
requirements specification...
linux_distro:
redhat (for 8.0, 9)
fedora
I like "fc"
Longer is better, IMHO. :-)
suse
debian
mandrake (for <= 10.1)
mandriva (for >= 10.2 -- or whenever the name change occurred)
...what should it be for the RH EL family?
I like "redhat"
If we no longer support RH 9, then this is fine.
I don't see any issue with that, "9" ne "3el", and the two are closely
related.
