From d19d5092749d6f9fceeffbcf9822c11fafeec5fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: yueyuankun Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 16:03:48 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Make release delimiter matching case-insensitive in lsb_release The lsb_release script currently only matches lowercase release when parsing distribution description strings from /etc/*-release files. This causes it to fail on distributions that use Release with a capital R, resulting in n/a for Distributor ID, Release, and Codename fields. For example, with a release file containing: "Linux Advanced Server Release Hello (Hi)" Before this fix: Distributor ID: n/a Release: n/a Codename: n/a After this fix: Distributor ID: LinuxAdvancedServer Release: Hello Codename: Hi This change adds the I (case-insensitive) flag to all sed commands that match DESCSTR_DELI, making the script more robust and compatible with both "release" and "Release" formats used by different distributions. The modification maintains backward compatibility with existing distributions that use lowercase "release" while also supporting those that use capitalized "Release". --- lsb_release/src/lsb_release | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/lsb_release/src/lsb_release b/lsb_release/src/lsb_release index fb4cbc5..30c6c28 100755 --- a/lsb_release/src/lsb_release +++ b/lsb_release/src/lsb_release @@ -244,7 +244,7 @@ EASE ($DISTRIB_CODENAME)" NO="" # is Description string syntax correct ? if [ -z "$DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION" ] \ || [ -n "$(echo $DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION | \ - sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//")" ] + sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//I")" ] then TMP_DISTRIB_DESC=$(head -n 1 $FILENAME 2>/dev/null) [ -z "$DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION" ] \ @@ -259,7 +259,7 @@ EASE ($DISTRIB_CODENAME)" NO="y" else # Do simple check [ -n "$(echo $TMP_DISTRIB_DESC | \ - sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//")" ] \ + sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//I")" ] \ && NO="y" fi @@ -306,13 +306,13 @@ DisplayID() { ## Linux could be part of the distro name (i.e. Turbolinux) or a separate word ## set before, after... ## also expect a delimiter ( i.e. "release" ) - if [ -n "$(echo $TMP_DISTRIB_DESC | sed "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//")" ] + if [ -n "$(echo $TMP_DISTRIB_DESC | sed "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*//I")" ] then DISTRIB_ID=$MSG_NA else DISTRIB_ID=$(echo " $TMP_DISTRIB_DESC" \ | sed -e "s/[[:blank:]][Ll][Ii][Nn][Uu][Xx][[:blank:]]/ /g" \ - -e "s/\(.*\)[[:blank:]]$DESCSTR_DELI.*/\1/" -e "s/[[:blank:]]//g") + -e "s/\(.*\)[[:blank:]]$DESCSTR_DELI.*/\1/I" -e "s/[[:blank:]]//g") fi fi if [ -z "$ARG_S" ] @@ -343,7 +343,7 @@ DisplayRelease() { if [ -z "$DISTRIB_RELEASE" ] then # parse the "$DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION" string DISTRIB_RELEASE=$(echo "$TMP_DISTRIB_DESC" | \ - sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI[[:blank:]]*\([[:digit:]][[:graph:]]*\).*/\1/" ) + sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI[[:blank:]]*\([[:digit:]][[:graph:]]*\).*/\1/I" ) [ "$DISTRIB_RELEASE" = "$TMP_DISTRIB_DESC" ] \ || [ -z "$DISTRIB_RELEASE" ] \ && DISTRIB_RELEASE=$MSG_NA @@ -361,7 +361,7 @@ DisplayCodename() { if [ -z "$DISTRIB_CODENAME" ] then # parse the "$DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION" string DISTRIB_CODENAME=$(echo "$TMP_DISTRIB_DESC" | \ - sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*(\(.*\)).*/\1/") + sed -e "s/.*$DESCSTR_DELI.*(\(.*\)).*/\1/I") [ "$DISTRIB_CODENAME" = "$TMP_DISTRIB_DESC" ] \ || [ -z "$DISTRIB_CODENAME" ] \ && DISTRIB_CODENAME=$MSG_NA
