Deprecating platform.linux_distribution() while retaining platform.win32_ver()
and platform.mac_ver() is non-orthogonal, unjustifiable, and (arguably)
discriminatory.
Platform version detection is no more a moving target under Linux than under
Windows or OS X

with desbma's heroic persistence and wholeheartedly disagree with rhettinger's
curt dismissal.

Strongly disagree. Beca
