Typed distro identity derived from OsRelease.

Variants

Fedora

Plain Fedora (Workstation, Server, …).

Fields

version: u32

FedoraSilverblue

Fedora Silverblue, Kinoite, or Sericea (immutable desktops).

Fields

version: u32

Ubuntu

Ubuntu LTS or interim.

Fields

major: u32

minor: u32

UbuntuCore

Ubuntu Core (IoT).

Fields

major: u32

minor: u32

Debian

Debian.

Fields

version: Option<u32>

Other

Any other distro — fields forwarded from OsRelease.

Fields

id: String

version_id: Option<String>

id_like: Vec<String>

ID_LIKE tokens, carried through so DistroId::family can make a best-effort derivative-family guess (see that method’s doc comment). Empty when ID_LIKE was absent.

Implementations

impl DistroId

pub fn family(&self) -> DistroFamily

Returns the broad family this distro belongs to.

ID_LIKE fallback for unrecognised derivatives

When self is Other (the running distro’s ID did not match any distro this crate detects directly — e.g. Linux Mint ID=linuxmint, Pop!_OS ID=pop), this consults ID_LIKE before giving up: if it contains "debian" or "ubuntu" the distro routes as DistroFamily::Debian; if it contains "fedora" or "rhel" it routes as DistroFamily::Fedora. This is best-effort derivative support, not full compatibility validation — ID_LIKE is a hint the distro maintainer supplies in /etc/os-release (see os-release(5)), not a guarantee the derivative’s package manager, repositories, or service names are wire-compatible with the parent. Actions may still fail at execution time on a derivative that diverges from its stated parent.

pub fn is_supported(&self) -> bool

Returns true for distros and versions with a shipped action backend.

Support policy:

• Fedora Atomic variants 41+ (Silverblue, Kinoite, and siblings)
• Ubuntu LTS: 22.04, 24.04, 26.04 (interim releases like 26.10 are excluded)

Plain Fedora remains detectable so the planner can explain the gap, but it is not supported until the dedicated dnf action family ships.
