Tell Ubuntu and Debian apart in a shell script ...
Is something on the lines of:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list|grep '^deb '|grep 'http://security\.'|head -n 1|grep -o 'debian|ubuntu'
a safe idea or does it already make too many assumptions?
Otherwise, what methods do you use to tell them apart from the shell?
Thanks,
// Oliver
