"Incorrect" /etc/debian_version

[stem]

Hi,

I just did a fresh debian wheezy net install, and my /etc/debian_version looks wrong :

git@pkgr:/tmp/buildpacks$ cat /etc/debian_version 
7.2

When I do a pkgr package with a puts distribution.inspect inside builder.rb, I get :

git@pkgr:~$ pkgr package /tmp/buildpacks/blu-server/
#<Pkgr::Distributions::Debian:0x00000001de4738 @version="7.2\n">

    from /usr/local/bin/pkgr:23:in `load'
    from /usr/local/bin/pkgr:23:in `<main>'

I've patched the debian_version file to be wheezy/7.2 and everything works fine now.

Any idea why the file is not like this from the beginning ?

Thanks for the bug report. I may have made too big of an assumption here. I'll have a look at what are the possible values for that file.

Forgot to comment here, but this is now taken care of by using the facter gem to fetch the distro version.
