This patch updates platform.platform() to recognize some more Linux distributions. In addition, for RedHat-like distributions, will use the contents of the /etc/<release-file> to determine distname. |

Logged In: YES user_id=38388 Sorry for the late reply. I must have missed the initial SF mail. I've had a look at the patch, but I'm not sure whether it can be accepted: wouldn't it break already recognized RedHat-like platforms ? |

Logged In: YES user_id=493197 Thanks for the response. If by "break" you mean that for redhat-like distros the output of `python platform.py` would no longer necessarily be the same after the patch is applied, yes, that's true. However, that was the primary motivation for the patch - the current platform.py wasn't sufficiently discriminating for my purposes. In particular, the current platform.py ignores the first "field" of the contents of /etc/redhat-release, which I believe for ROCKS was the only portion which was changed from the redhat version on which it was based. |

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Marc-Andre, would you rather accept or reject this patch, because of the incompatibility? |

Logged In: YES user_id=38388 I'm currently working on an updated version of platform.py that will include part of this patch, patch #1563842 for IronPython and better support for Jython. |

I'll add a new API linux_distribution() which will provide the more detailed information and also add support for Rocks (as well as a few others). |
