Module 'distro' has no '__version__' member

[AdnanHodzic]

As it's case with most Python packages, if you run i.e:

print("psutil version:", psutil.__version__)

you'll end up getting package version, i.e: psutil: 5.7.2

However, if I do the same for distro package, i.e:

print("distro:", distro.__version__)

I'll immediately get Module 'distro' has no '__version__' member

Would it be possible to add this functionality in one of the future versions instead of having to resort to hacks/workarounds in order to print distro package version as part of a Python app.

Thanks!

The modern way to do this is with importlib.metadata.

>>> from importlib.metadata import version
>>> version('distro')
'1.5.0'

Thanks for the report. Resolved in a3da4d4.
