#4666: Make -bdist use canonical binary names
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  mabshoff  |       Owner:  mabshoff  
     Type:  defect    |      Status:  new       
 Priority:  major     |   Milestone:  sage-3.2.2
Component:  build     |    Keywords:            
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 When we are producing binaries for sagemath.org the naming scheme is often
 inconsistent and some times even outright misleading.

 On Linux -bdist should produce consistent names for binaries, so use
 lsb_release when available. I.e. on an x86 Fedora Core 9 system a
 {{{
  ./sage -bdist 3.2.1
 }}}
 would yield
 {{{
  sage-3.2.1-Fedora-9-x86.tar.gz
 }}}
 This info can be extracted on Linux via lsb_release
 {{{
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ lsb_release -i -s
 Fedora
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ lsb_release -r -s
 9
 }}}
 On OSX use uname to specify OSX release, CPU architecture and 32 vs. 64
 bit builds.

 Cheers,

 Michael
