Package: python-distro-info
Version: 0.4~oneiric1~ppa1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Distro info allows you to get the release version number by passing the "--
release" flag:
$ distro-info --stable --release
11.10
It would be nice to access the same info easily from python-distro-info. For
instance, something like:
>>> from distro_info import UbuntuDistroInfo
>>> UbuntuDistroInfo().stable()
'oneiric'
>>> UbuntuDistroInfo().stable("version")
'11.10'
Attached patch is not really complete. I'm hoping for some review/feedback
before proceeding further.
Thanks!
