os-release (5) recommends that the os-release file be installed in
/usr/lib/os-release and that /etc/os-release be a relative symlink to it.

This probably needs an "rm -f ${D}${sysconfdir}/os-release" too to
prevent problems if install is run twice as lnr doesn't handle the
case where the target already exists.

both install calls above could be squashed into install -D -m 0644 ...

Doesn't do_install clean out ${D} each time it reruns though?

I am also seeing packaging failures

Yes, it does. Sometimes it's useful to rerun the run.do_install script
manually though.

We don't support that, I think its reasonable to assume that ${D} is
empty at the start of do_install. To do otherwise would mean changing a
lot of do_install functions for very little gain IMO.

Why do we need ${D} in first place? Doesn't

ln -snf ${libdir}/os-release ${D}${sysconfdir}

solve both issues?

Most callers of lnr already explicitly remove the target first.
Ensuring new calls to lnr do the same as they are added isn't a lot of
work.
