[issue3410] platform.version() don't work as expected in Vista in portuguese

Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti [at] gmail> added the comment:

I tried platform.version() on a non-English Vista and XP and I got
'32bit' for Vista and '5.1.2600' for XP. With platform.platform() I got
'Windows-32bit-SP2' on Vista and 'Windows-XP-5.1.2600-SP2' on XP.

The same happens in Portuguese version ... the regex fails because ver
returns "Versão" ...

Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti [at] gmail> added the comment:

According to Google Translate, in Vietnamese 'Version' is 'Phiên bản'.
If this is true both \S+ and \w+ will fail.
I also noticed a few more regex (namely _release_filename,
_lsb_release_version and _release_version) which contain the words
'version' and 'release' and may fail if these are translated.
I guess I'll have to check with some live cd (since these regex are used
for Linux apparently) and some other language to see if it works.

Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal [at] egenix> added the comment:

I've checked in patch r74005 to address the problem.

Could you check whether the current SVN version of platform.py works on
your Portuguese Windows version ?

Thanks.
