Description : The distro (for: Linux Distribution) package provides information
: about the Linux distribution it runs on, such as a reliable
: machine-readable ID, or version information.
:
: It is a renewed alternative implementation for Python's original
: platform.linux_distribution function, but it also provides much
: more functionality. An alternative implementation became necessary
: because Python 3.5 deprecated this function, and Python 3.7 is
: expected to remove it altogether. Its predecessor function
: platform.dist was already deprecated since Python 2.6 and is also
: expected to be removed in Python 3.7. Still, there are many cases
: in which access to that information is needed. See Python issue
: 1322 for more information.

: Python 2 version.
