Subject: lib/oe/lsb: Add basic LSB functions
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 13:05:51 -0000
From: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
X-Patchwork-Id: 33123
Message-Id: <1343307951.29991.27.camel@ted>
To: openembedded-core <openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org>

This code was written by Christopher Larson <chris_larson@mentor.com> and
allows generation of the LSB release data based upon the lsb_release
command. It also includes a helper function to generate a string
representing a given distribution.
