Python's deprecation process takes several years, but linux_distribution is 
actually nearing the end of it. It is planned to be removed.

Your improvement is great, but at this point, it is more similar to adding a 
new feature to the standard library, than fixing a bug.

What are the use cases for linux_distribution()? Does it solve a common enough 
(and clear enough) problem that it should be in the stdlib?
