Hi Jeff, I agree with you, but I wanted to use CentOS and SL NOW for testing and OS_Detect isn't yet used throughout the distro. The patch is very similar to what I had to do for systeminstaller (after all Distro.pm has its roots there), so it was just getting them both on the same level.
I also wanted to try whether CentOS and SL work just out of the box, i.e. without replacing and recompiling the redhat-release RPM. And I hope that this compatibility will survive when switching over to OS_Detect. Regarding OS_Detect we didn't continue the discussion on eliminating the need for executing functions inside it and extend its scope to images, too...
