Feature #3720

Operating system name should be different to Facter operating system string
Added by Dominic Cleal over 10 years ago.
Updated almost 6 years ago.
Description
The OS names reported by Facter aren't the actual operating system names, so we should have a separate label/description to the ID that Facter uses.
e.g. "RedHat" should be "Red Hat Enterprise Linux", "Scientific" should be "Scientific Linux" etc.
- Description updated (diff)
Can we use RHEL instead of long variant?
Yeah, it'd certainly fit on the screen better. I was wondering if the LSB descriptions could be used by default, though that's the "long form", but at least let users edit the label/description.
