I think the problem might be that linux_distribution() reads /etc/debian_version first. The contents of the relevant files in /etc look like: $ cat /etc/debian_version squeeze/sid $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=lucid DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS"
