Dear Maintainer,
ISTM that 'debian-distro-info' would greatly benefit from a mode
where it prints all/any of the csv fields for a selected codename.
e.g.
*option* = currently unsupported/desired command line option
$ debian-distro-info --stable *--release*
2013-05-04
$ debian-distro-info --oldstable *--eol*
2014-05-04
$ debian-distro-info --oldstable *--version*
6.0
$ debian-distro-info --testing *--version*
8.0
$ debian-distro-info --testing *--release*
undefined
$ debian-distro-info --stable *--allinfo*
version: 7.0
codename: Wheezy
series: wheezy
created: 2011-02-06
release: 2013-05-04
eol: undefined
(note there's also a contradiction here with the new versioning
scheme. i.e. Wheezy is listed as version 7.0, but i think it's
now supposed to be just "7", as the middle number of a version
has been deprecated, that's probably a distro-info-data bug?.)
thanks,
