Jason Robinson added the comment: platform.linux_distribution is being deprecated in 3.5 and removed in 3.6 as stated in comment http://bugs.python.org/issue1322#msg207427 in issue #1322 I'm guessing this issue should be closed when that patch is merged in? -- nosy: +ezio.melotti, jaywink ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Marc-Andre Lemburg m...@egenix.com added the comment: I think we'll start to use the lsb_release command if available and as suggested in issue1322. Note that if you test the API, make sure that you use a Python build from sources available on python.org - the Debian and Ubuntu packagers tend to patch Python in their distributions (just like RedHat and others do) and we don't really want to hunt down bugs/problems that are not relevant to our code base. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Matthias Klose d...@debian.org added the comment: IMO using lsb_release is not an option, because it can take some time to complete. So maybe it's better for the Ubuntu change to guard the check with the existance of /etc/debian_version. Please could you attach a Mandriva lsb-release file? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

New submission from Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr:
At least on one of the buildbots:
Re-running test 'test_ssl' in verbose mode
test_ssl: testing with 'OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010' (0, 9, 8, 15, 15)
under Linux ('debian', 'squeeze/sid', '')
at the bottom of
http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/builders/i386%20Ubuntu%203.x/builds/1788/steps/test/logs/stdio
Someone on IRC pointed out that on their machine, the system Python returned
('Ubuntu', '10.04', 'lucid').

Simon Cross hodges...@gmail.com added the comment:
I can confirm that I see the ('debian', 'squeeze/sid', '') on py3k and trunk
but that the Python 2.6 under Ubuntu reports ('Ubuntu', '10.04', 'lucid').

[issue9514] platform.linux_distribution() under Ubuntu returns ('debian', 'squeeze/sid', '')
Simon Cross hodges...@gmail.com added the comment: I think the problem might be that linux_distribution() reads /etc/debian_version first. The contents of the relevant files in /etc look like: $ cat /etc/debian_version squeeze/sid $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=lucid DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue9514] platform.linux_distribution() under Ubuntu returns ('debian', 'squeeze/sid', '')
Simon Cross hodges...@gmail.com added the comment: Patch attached to check /etc/lsb-release before checking other files. Taken from Ubuntu Python 2.6 copy of platform.py. Applies against trunk (r83728) with a small offset against py3k (r83728). -- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file18389/use-lsb-release-first.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment:
FWIW, the output is a bit different here before the patch:
$ ./python -c import platform; print(platform.linux_distribution())
('Mandriva Linux', '2010.1', 'Official')
and after the patch:
$ ./python -c import platform; print(platform.linux_distribution())
('MandrivaLinux', '2010.1', 'Henry_Farman')
but I would say it's because Mandriva has inconsistent contents in their
respective /etc/mandriva_release and /etc/lsb-release files.
The patch itself is a bit imperfect and will need reworking (_u_distname,
_u_version and _u_id should be initialized to '' rather than catching
UnboundLocalError; remove ubuntu-specific comments).

Simon Cross hodges...@gmail.com added the comment: I think the intended means of accessing this information is via the lsb_release command (http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_4.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/lsbrelease.html). That said, I don't know if the file format will change drastically unless someone re-implements lsb_release. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9514 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
