        Hello all,

        I noticed some reference to /etc/os-release in some recipes.
        Where can I
        find the initial creation of /etc/os-release? If one is not
        created,
        would there desire to have one?

    Really?  We reference it in the meta/lib/oe/lsb.py
    release_dict_file() function to search for LSB information of the
    host machine to identify the host distro version information.

    Can you be specific about which recipes are using os-release, I
    did do a search.


I'm pretty sure we don't have an os-release recipe in oe-core at all yet, so the file isn't going to exist on target. Mentor has one in meta-mentor at the moment pending time to submit it again / poke on the existing thread. See the thread with the subject "[RFC PATCH 0/2] Add /etc/os-release". It's definitely something we should have, in my opinion.
Yeah, That is what I was thinking of.
Thanks for the pointer.
