( @jolivain Very very picky hat taken from @hartwork : from this commit you included in the second commit, do we want to "officially" support Buildroot versions older than 2012-02 too ? 🧐 ) |
@HorlogeSkynet 😃 I think I started using phrase "with my picky hat on" because of Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats. I may also have seen it verbatim somewhere else. Greetings 🍻 |
Hi @HorlogeSkynet, No, I don't expect distro to officially support Buildroot older than 2012.02. python-distro was introduced in commit: According to https://nightly.buildroot.org/manual.html#_releases Buildroot is not really meant to install packages at runtime, which is why I'm not expecting any support for older releases anyway. Do you want me to create a new commit adding Best regards, Julien. |
Thanks for your detailed response @jolivain. Thus, I guess we're good this way. Let's merge this 👍 |
This pull request adds Buildroot Linux in distro.id() documentation list and a test.
