• Make distro non-importable on non-compatible platforms (e.g. Windows and tested via AppVeyor)
• Completely redo the testing framework to make it easier to add tests
• Remove six as a dependency

• Fix some encoding related issues
• We now use bytes invariantly
• Test on pypy

• Documentation fixes.
• distro.info() now receives best and pretty flags.
• Added Linux Mint test case.
• Removed get_ prefix from get_*_release_attr functions.
• Now testing on Python 3.4.
• Codename is now passed in distro.info()

Release v0.5.0

This release contains most enhancements that were in the pipe, and is ready for serious use. A few open discussions points exist though, and this is why this release is marked as a pre-release.

API documentation does exist and is complete.

This version is available on PyPI:

pip install ld

Testing could still be improved (see the test-related open issues), but the unit tests at this point cover the major distros and are fairly complete.

0.2.9

• Redhat should now work
• Full Test Coverage and a more organized testing framework
• Added some tests for additional distros and
• Fixed some minor bugs
• Preparations for first stable release.

v0.2.1: Merge pull request #15 from nir0s/various-fixes-and-optimizations

• Added missing docstrings
• Basing LSB info on lsb_release -a instead of /etc/lsb-release. Apparently, the file is not a part of the standard.. but the command is.
• ld.info() no longer contains name and codename fields as they're not machine readable by default.
• ld.name() and ld.version() implementations are now more consistent between types of lookup mechanisms. Overall consistency improved.
• Testing coverage is now 96%
• Python3 fixes applied.

v0.1.2: Merge pull request #2 from nir0s/docs-and-python-versions-coverage

This is the first official release of ld.

• It is currently tested on Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.5 - from here on out, contributions are welcome for additional versions, if required.
• There are still inconsistencies and other caveats stated in the README. Read these before using.
• Functionality is there in terms of retrieving the relevant types of information. Now, we need to expand it to support as many distro-specific cases.
