Tested on 3.3.2 and 2.6.6.

On Oracle Linux, platform.linux_distribution detects the current distribution as Red Hat Enterprise Linux:

>>> import platform
>>> platform.linux_distribution()
('Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server', '6.2', 'Santiago')

I would have expected something along the lines of:

>>> import platform
>>> platform.linux_distribution()
('Oracle Linux', '6.2', '')

Or perhaps ('Oracle Linux Server', '6.2', '').
