Yes, he doesn't.. however other software does behind his back.."if suse release found then parse else read os-release.."
(grumble) How things get complicated... You are right, if there are other apps that try to parse that old file they will find the wrong contents (symlinked or touched file) and fail in unpredicted ways. David: don't symlink the file. Don't create it with zero bytes. As a temporary hack, create the file yourself with /correct/ contents: openSUSE 15.0 (x86_64) VERSION = 15.0 CODENAME = Dunno # /etc/SuSE-release is deprecated and will be removed in the future... And take that time to correct your scripts. No other way. -- Cheers/Saludos Carlos E. R.
