rebuid issue using linode-cli (CentOS 7 missing)

[kimjayney]

I'm run script

linode rebuild rubyrain1 --distribution "CentOS 7" --password $L_DEFAULT_PW --stackscript $L_STACKSCRIPT_ID  --stackscriptjson '{ "privip": "$F_PRIV_IP_DATA", "sslip" : "$L_SSLSERVER_IP", "sslpw" : "$L_SSLSERVER_PW" }'  --api-key $L_API_KEY #build new node process with Stackscript

also, I tried single quote

--distribution 'CentOS 7'

But node Installed CentOS 6

[root@li1602-162 ~]# cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS release 6.8 (Final)
[root@li1602-162 ~]#

Thanks for reporting this @rainc.

This API v3 based CLI is deprecated in favor of the Linode API v4 based CLI at https://www.github.com/linode/linode-cli (pip install linode-cli).

In the new linode-cli, with our new image ids, the distribution label matching bug you experienced would not occur.

$ linode-cli images list --format id
