The "/etc/lsb-release" file is owned by the "base-files" package, which has priority "required" on Ubuntu Lucid (latest LTS release) and Ubuntu Natty (latest release). It should therefore always be present, on any Ubuntu installation (excluding administrative intervention, of course). The format of this file is: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=11.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=natty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.04" ...so using a string-match on one of the lines would perhaps feel better than a case insensitive regexp on "ubuntu". -- Stig Sandbeck Mathisen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Developers" group.
