I installed a fresh EndeavourOS today. I DID admit I unchecked A LOT in the net installer…
But nothing I unchecked should have had the effect of the OS not identifying as Endeavour?
Basically running screenfetch it tells me I am running pure arch, with the Arch logo?
I went back to Cinnamon again. Fresh install of Windows 10 and dual boot EndeavourOS Cinnamon.
I think you will toss & turn in your sleep and reinstall KDE in the morning 
I got issues … I do keep on reinstalling it but i just can’t get there.

I played around a bit: I can’t determine if the hook doesn’t trigger, or if it’s triggers but fails to do something.
Just realized that when I installed my very first install of EndeavourOS, the last beta before release, this happened. And I was just running the installer as is, obviously; no Net installer to screw up.
I assumed that’s just as it was supposed to be, it being a beta and Eos being closer to Arch anyway than say Antergos or Manjaro.
…But was it? Was it supposed to identify as “Endeavour” and not “Arch” even then? in that case this has happened to me twice, with several months apart on two different computers and two different installers.
first versions (beta) do not configure lsb-release but now it should do so!
The hook is there but does nothing.
you did lsb_release -a ?
“Unknown command”.
Do a pacman.d hook and be happy

do you have lsb-release package installed ?
Duh. Easiest check ever. I was sure I had not removed it, but I guess I got a bit trigger happy.
…It IS installed, but not in the path. I try to reinstall it and I get “conflicting packages”.
the hook is for if arch update and it change back to arch name as example the hook fixes that to endeavouros

This means it can be removed then reinstalled, right?
its because the hook already made a lsb-release in /etc/ so the owner is not as on the package… but is i think not the important is just neofetch as example where it read from is omportand…the bin file is lsb_release (-a)
