Re: starter and dltbl

 

Hello All

Not sure if this is applicable, but, apt-cache rdepends lsb-release
returns a pretty hefty list for r-deps on a standard install, but I'm
not sure how that applies, if at all, to your OBI.

If LSB release is not installed: cat /etc/issue  will yield the basic
info, like:

Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l

best regards,

Greg.
