Comment 2 for bug 153695

Unfortunately, this project is very very redhat centric.

Here's a snippet from client/software.py:

def read_os():
    try:
        return file('/etc/redhat-release').read().strip()
    except IOError:
        try:
            return file('/etc/SuSE-release').read().split('\n')[0].strip()
        except IOError:
            return 'Unknown'

Until things like this are cleaned up, don't expect it to show up in Ubuntu.
