FWIW, I just added a driver script, "scripts/OCA-driver.pl", that just
tries to load the OS_Detect framework. I had on my HD during testing and
just decided it might be helpful in general. Basically Jeff's notes in an
executable script.

Please dont consider my previous request. That was a quick trail. Anyway I
just went through the entire code and the following is the output on my
debian machine(after slight modifications in code) . Now that OS_Detect is
in place, I think its time for me to work on some other debian components.
Is there any tentative list of components that that were already discussed
and are in the todo list ?

Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at
OSCAR/OCA/OS_Detect.pm line 40.
It will be great if some one can provide me a complete example
script which can show the exact usage of this module.
Could be useful for the oscar debian port.
Thnakyou.

1. Can I checkout the OS_Detect sources ?
Yes, it's available here as well:
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/oscar/trunk/lib/OSCAR/OCA/
2. Which parts of the current OSCAR distribution is OS_Detect
going to replace?
Off the top of my head: Distro.pm <http://Distro.pm>, oda's setup
script, DepMan/PackMan,
generic-setup script, etc....
3. Just in brief, what will be the main job of this framework ?
As Mike has mentioned, this will be central framework for answering the
question 'What Operating System am I running?'
4. For which OSCAR distribution this is being planned ?
All supported distributions.
Cheers,
Bernard
