t data if
    the OS distribution is not consistent across multiple data sources it
    provides (there are indeed such distributions ...).

    Another reason for differences is the fact that the :func:`distro.id`
    method normalizes the distro ID string to a reliable machine-readable value
    for a number of popular OS distributions.
    zĘdistro.linux_distribution() is deprecated. It should only be used as a compatibility shim with Python's platform.linux_distribution(). Please use distro.id(), distro.version() and distro.name() instead.é
