* Add a changelog for the version number in facts change
The search string used to look for Clear Linux
was changed in 45a9f96774 to
be more specific, but was too specific. Now finding
a substring match for 'Clear Linux' in /usr/lib/os-release
is enough to consider a match.
Since the details of the full name in os-release varies
('Clear Linux Software for Intel Architecture',
'Clear Linux OS for Intel Architecture', etc) the
search string match was failing and would fall back to the
'first word in the release file' method resulting in
ansible_distribution='NAME="Clear'
Also add a meta fact indicating which search string
was matched.
Test case info from:
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/31501#issuecomment-340861535Fixes#31501
Currently, "ansible localhost -m setup" can fail silently during the
run of gen_distribution_version_testcase.py, resulting in incorrect
output. Use check_output() rather than communicate() and handle
the exception if we get a nonzero return value.
As suggested in feedback on
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/17575, add
os_family to test_distribution_version. Add the
correct os_family to the existing testcase data
entries.
Also add os_family to the output of
gen_distribution_version_testcase.py so any new
generated entries will contain this data.
* add tests for centos6, rhel6 and rhel7
* gen_distribution_version_testcase with python2.6
* remove unused imports
* fix redhat/vmware/... parsing
* add centos7 test case
