Hi,
I'm in the middle of patching a bunch of systems (Ubuntu, Devuan and
Debian flavors) and noticed Devuan's /etc/os-release file doesn't
contain any VERSION tags.
This file comes in handy for parsing from shell scripts when lsb_release
isn't installed or /etc/issue has been customized.
Is this intended or just an oversight?
