From 5ae4d543cb9b45ad6c6b82b78da1d6abc2291cdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lennart Poettering Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2014 19:45:52 +0200 Subject: os-release: define /usr/lib/os-release as fallback for /etc/os-release The file should have been in /usr/lib/ in the first place, since it describes the OS container in /usr (and not the configuration in /etc), hence, let's support os-release files in /usr/lib as fallback if no version in /etc exists, following the usual override logic. A prior commit already enabled tmpfiles to create /etc/os-release as a symlink to /usr/lib/os-release should it be missing, thus providing nice compatibility with applications only checking in /etc. While it's probably a good idea if all apps check both locations via a fallback logic, it is only necessary in the early boot process, as long as the /etc/os-release symlink has not been restored, in case we boot with an empty /etc. --- src/journal/journal-gatewayd.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src/journal') diff --git a/src/journal/journal-gatewayd.c b/src/journal/journal-gatewayd.c index 9a88676242..c682666a22 100644 --- a/src/journal/journal-gatewayd.c +++ b/src/journal/journal-gatewayd.c @@ -767,7 +767,8 @@ static int request_handler_machine( if (r < 0) return mhd_respondf(connection, MHD_HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, "Failed to determine disk usage: %s\n", strerror(-r)); - parse_env_file("/etc/os-release", NEWLINE, "PRETTY_NAME", &os_name, NULL); + if (parse_env_file("/etc/os-release", NEWLINE, "PRETTY_NAME", &os_name, NULL) == -ENOENT) + parse_env_file("/usr/lib/os-release", NEWLINE, "PRETTY_NAME", &os_name, NULL); get_virtualization(&v); -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
