Bug 1894412 - When reading /etc/os-release, fall back to BUILD_ID when VERSION_ID is not set. a=dmeehan Arch Linux doesn't come with a VERSION_ID at all, but it has a BUILD_ID. Semantically, falling back to BUILD_ID when VERSION_ID is not present would seem fair play: Per https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/os-release.html: BUILD_ID= A string uniquely identifying the system image originally used as the installation base. In most cases, VERSION_ID or IMAGE_ID+IMAGE_VERSION are updated when the entire system image is replaced during an update. BUILD_ID may be used in distributions where the original installation image version is important: VERSION_ID would change during incremental system updates, but BUILD_ID would not. This field is optional. Original Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D209089 Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D209192
