Facter can help you there.
Puppet uses it to determine a bunch of facts about your server.
You don't have to have puppet to use it, if you use RHEL or Centos, you
can get it through yum.
If you run facter lsbdistrelease, will give your version.

Create a custom fact for your own needs.
FYI $operatingsystemrelase (or some facts) may need the "*lsb*" packages.
(I don't have the exact name, redhat-lsb, I think, if redhat)

variable. But I have other applications with version files and I need
to run specific class/command based on versions. Any suggestions how I
should go around it?
