The JBS issue has a long discussion and explanation but here's a short version.
Instead of having baked in names of distros in the code that figures out names for font configuration files for Linux
use the standard ID and VERSION_ID fields in /etc/os-release which is now standard.
even systemd doesn't work if it does not exist https://0pointer.de/blog/projects/os-release
And if it doesn't we just use "Linux" as the name.
