NAME

       lsb_release - print distribution-specific information (minimal implementation).

SYNOPSIS

       lsb_release [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This is a bare-bones version of the lsb_release command, implemented as a tiny POSIX shell
       script (less than 100 lines of commented code).

       Instead of using LSB packages, this version of lsb_release uses the information in
       /etc/os-release and /usr/lib/os-release.  Nevertheless, the output of this version is
       byte-for-byte compatible with the Python-based version provided by Debian and its
       derivatives.

       Using this implementation it is possible to avoid installing Python in a base OS image
       while still retaining compatibility with older scripts that expect lsb_release to exist.

OPTIONS

       The program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two
       dashes ("--").  A summary of options are included below.

           Show a help message with a list of options and exit.

       -i, --id
           Show distributor ID.

       -d, --description
           Show description of this distribution.

       -r, --release
           Show release number of this distribution.

       -c, --codename
           Show code name of this distribution.

       -s, --short
           Show requested information in short format.

FILES

       /usr/lib/os-release
           Distribution-provided file with operating system identification data.

       /etc/os-release
           Machine-specific file with operating system identification data.  If present,
           /etc/os-release is read instead of /usr/lib/os-release.
