Hi all.

So I noticed that on systems upgraded to devuan jessie from debian
wheezy, I still have a /etc/debian_version. I don't have this file on a
couple devuan systems installed from scratch.

I figured I didn't need a /etc/debian_version reading 7.1.1 anymore,
so I blew it away on one of my upgraded systems. Nothing exploded when
I did this, except that when I do upgrades, I am seeing the message:

cat: /etc/debian_version: no such file or directory.

I can probably put that file back, and all would be good. However, my
question is what is still looking for that file during apt-get
dist-upgrade, and more to the point, how can I make this message
during upgrades stop without bringing back /etc/debian_version? Thanks
in advance for any input.

Greg
