PR google#2148 mapped ID=almalinux to EcosystemAlmaLinux using the full os-release VERSION_ID as the suffix. On a real host VERSION_ID is a point release (e.g. "9.8"), producing the ecosystem "AlmaLinux:9.8". OSV.dev keys AlmaLinux (ALSA) advisories by major version only ("AlmaLinux:9"), so the point-release suffix matches zero advisories. Empirical check against the OSV.dev API for an AlmaLinux 9.8 host with 416 installed packages: AlmaLinux:9 -> 38 packages with vulns, 532 vuln refs AlmaLinux:9.8 -> 0 packages, 0 vulns e.g. NetworkManager 1.54.3-2.el9: AlmaLinux:9 => 3 vulns, 9.8 => 0. Trim VERSION_ID to the part before the first "." so "9.8" -> "9". A bare major such as "9" is returned unchanged by strings.Cut. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
