Hi,
just checked in some major changes to OS_Detect. It can now be used for
detecting the distro and architecture of:
- the machine it runs on
- an image
- a package pool (guess this makes it twice as useful as before).
Arguments and usage examples (prepend OSCAR::OCA::OS_Detect:: to each line):
open() : detects distro/arch installed in "/"
open($path) : detects distro/arch in chroot directory $path
(option kept for compatibility reasons).
open(chroot=>$path) : detects distro/arch in chroot directory $path
open(pool=>$pool) : detects distro/arch of package pool $pool
A big part of the code has been moved up from the detection modules to the
OS_Detect.pm module.
Next change to come: validation of supported distros based on the
$id->{compat_distro} and $id->{compat_distrover} strings.
A small query tool was added, too (scripts/distro-query). For validation and
testing purposes, when new distro modules are added.
The changes are applied to trunk, so might work in OSCAR5 if they survive.
Regards,
Erich
