+Subject: [PATCH] [policies] Fix bug in distro identification
+
+Fixes a bug in #3764.
+
+A bug in the distro-identifying logic caused incorrect identification
+of the distro as CentOS, Fedora, or RHEL under the following conditions:
+
+1. Distro inherits RedHatPolicy
+2. Distro has either of /etc/{centos,fedora,redhat}-release
+3. Policy file appears earlier than redhat.py in dictionary order
+
+The issue occurs because the distro-identifying logic relies on the
+existence of the above os_release_file without examining its contents,
+more than checking NAME or ID in the /etc/os-release file. As a result,
+once /etc/{centos,fedora,redhat}-release is found, the contents of
+/etc/os-release are never checked, leading to distro misidentification.
+
+At least AlmaLinux is affected by this bug.
