This feature would be useful. The retrieval of the alias in my pbuilderrc file is done by: case "$DIST" in $(debian-distro-info -d)) DIST="unstable" ;; $(debian-distro-info -t)) DIST="testing" ;; $(debian-distro-info -s)) DIST="stable" ;; esac This could be reduced to one debian-distro-info --alias call with this feature. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
