El problema
Al ejecutar el comando "lsb_release -r" para mostrar el número de versión de la distribución actualmente instalada, el usuario obtiene el siguiente error:
# lsb_release -v -bash: lsb_release: command not found
¿Cómo se puede resolver esto?
La solución
Para comprobar la versión de RedHat/CentOS se puede utilizar el comando “lsb_release”. En la mayoría de los casos, el paquete que proporciona este comando no está instalado de forma predeterminada en los sistemas. Para verificar qué paquete proporciona el comando lsb_release, use el siguiente comando:
Para CentOS/RHEL 7
# yum whatprovides lsb_release Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile epel/x86_64/metalink | 16 kB 00:00:00 * base: mirrors.advancedhosters.com * epel: mirror.umd.edu * extras: mirrors.advancedhosters.com * nux-dextop: li.nux.ro * updates: mirrors.advancedhosters.com ... redhat-lsb-core-4.1-27.el7.centos.1.i686 : LSB Core module support Repo : base Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/lsb_release
Para CentOS/RHEL 8:
# yum whatprovides lsb_release Last metadata expiration check: 28 days, 20:55:23 ago on Sat 07 Sep 2019 04:57:53 PM UTC. redhat-lsb-core-4.1-47.el8.x86_64 : LSB Core module support Repo : rhel-8-appstream-rhui-rpms Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/lsb_release redhat-lsb-core-4.1-47.el8.i686 : LSB Core module support Repo : rhel-8-appstream-rhui-rpms Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/lsb_release
Como se muestra arriba, el comando lsb_release lo proporciona el paquete “redhat-lsb-core ”. Es posible que este paquete no esté presente de forma predeterminada en el sistema y es posible que deba instalarlo primero. Utilice el siguiente comando para instalar el paquete en los sistemas CentOS/RHEL 7 y 8:
# yum install redhat-lsb-core
O
# yum install redhat-lsb
Prefiero instalar "redhat-lsb-core" en lugar de "redhat-lsb", ya que requiere menos dependencias de paquetes. Si no necesita específicamente el paquete "redhat-lsb", le sugiero que instale solo el paquete principal.
Para CentOS/RHEL 8 también puede usar dnf para instalar el paquete:
# dnf install redhat-lsb-core
Salida de muestra:
# dnf install redhat-lsb-core Last metadata expiration check: 0:15:19 ago on Sun 06 Oct 2019 01:57:17 PM UTC.
