No, ansible uses NAME from /etc/os-release. ID is used only from /usr/lib/os-release. See https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/module_utils/facts/system/distribution.py#L390 But /etc/redhat-release seems to be preferred over /etc/os-release, so I guess this change won't have an impact on the "distribution" variable. -- Miroslav Lichvar _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
