MAL: why do you say it is better to look for /etc/$supportedplatform-release files first instead of looking for /etc/lsb-release first? I do not know if /etc/lsb-release is suitably generic -- I've tried it only on a few platforms. I do know that executing lsb_release is suitably generic since it is standard, but I prefer not to try it first since it imposes about half-a-second delay.
