 |
|
Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding the /etc/os-release file on Gentoo. Specifically, I’m wondering if the VERSION_ID field in this file is related to a Gentoo profile number, or if it serves a different purpose.
I’ve checked the documentation, but I couldn’t find a direct reference connecting the two. Could someone clarify this for me?
Thanks in advance!
| Code: | $ grep VERSION_ID /etc/os-release
VERSION_ID="2.17" |
| Code: | $ eselect profile list | grep 17

I'm guessing that it is related to baselayout: | Code: | $ grep VERSION /etc/os-release
VERSION_ID="2.17"
$ qlist -CISRv baselayout
sys-apps/baselayout-2.17:0::gentoo
$ qfile /etc/os-release
sys-apps/baselayout: /etc/os-release |

Yeah, it's the version of the currently installed sys-apps/baselayout.
