Switch from PRETTY_NAME to NAME and VERSION to identify OS (native AOT) #305

Closed Beau-Gosse-dev closed 8 months ago

Beau-Gosse-dev commented 8 months ago

Description of changes: It seems that PRETTY_NAME in /etc/os-release for Amazon Linux 2023 has changed to having minor version information in it now. This causes the build to think you're not on AL2023 when you really are. This is because the old string expected to end in a double quote directly after 2023 but now the full string is PRETTY_NAME="Amazon Linux 2023.3.20240304"

It seems like using NAME and VERSION will be more reliable than PRETTY_NAME.

Below is the output from a newly created AL2 ARM EC2 instance:

[ec2-user@ip-172-31-11-224 ~]$ cat /etc/os-release 
NAME="Amazon Linux"
VERSION="2"

ID_LIKE="centos rhel fedora"
