Subject: How does cfengine identify OS/release?

I'm running into a weird problem I can't figure out.   This is on cfengine 
2.2.10 so I know we're talking ancient history here.

Someone recently built an OpenSuse server in a VM, and for some reason cfagent 
is not picking up the SuSE, suse, suse_11, suse_11_4 classes I normally expect. 
  I can't figure out why though, and I've been searching around and haven't 
found any documentation reference as to how cfagent does (or did) the OS 
detection that might point me at what's wrong with the server config.   Running 
cfagent in debug mode hasn't provided any insight so far, unless I'm missing 
something.

If anyone has any suggestions or pointers to the right documentation I would 
appreciate it.

All the usual OS info items look pretty much the same as on my other openSuse 
servers that are being detected correctly.
