Hello all,<br>
<br>
I noticed some reference to /etc/os-release in some recipes. Where can I<br>
find the initial creation of /etc/os-release? If one is not created,<br>
would there desire to have one?<br>
<br>

Really? We reference it in the meta/lib/oe/lsb.py release_dict_file() function to search for LSB information of the host machine to identify the host distro version information.<br>
<br>
Can you be specific about which recipes are using os-release, I did do a search.</blockquote></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I'm pretty sure we don't have an os-release recipe in oe-core at all yet, so the file isn't going to exist on target. Mentor has one in meta-mentor at the moment pending time to submit it again / poke on the existing thread. See the thread with the subject "[RFC PATCH 0/2] Add /etc/os-release". It's definitely something we should have, in my opinion.<br>
