Description-en: Linux Standard Base version reporting utility
The Linux Standard Base (http://www.linuxbase.org/) is a standard
core system that third-party applications written for Linux can
depend upon.
.
The lsb-release command is a simple tool to help identify the Linux
distribution being used and its compliance with the Linux Standard Base.
LSB conformance will not be reported unless the required metapackages are
installed.
.
While it is intended for use by LSB packages, this command may also
be useful for programmatically distinguishing between a pure Debian
installation and derived distributions.
