# platform.libc_ver regularly returns completely nonsensical glibc

#
#   ~$ python2.7 -c 'import platform; print(platform.libc_ver())'
#   ('glibc', '2.7')
#   ~$ python3.5 -c 'import platform; print(platform.libc_ver())'

#
# But the truth is:
#
#   ~$ ldd --version
#   ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.22-11) 2.22
#
# This is unfortunate, because it means that the linehaul data on libc
# versions that was generated by pip 8.1.2 and earlier is useless and
# misleading. Solution: instead of using platform, use our code that actually
# works.
