Comment (by ausil):

 that the netinst and install dvd have the same volumue-id is intentinal
 and part of how everything has been designed to work. I have made some
 changes to pungi in rawhide to get product info into the volume-id. but
 changing the netinst and install dvd to have different volume-ids means
 completely redoing how we build the media. It is not likely to happen.
 realistically you should not be using the volume-id for what you are using
 it for.

 there is already well defined entry points to get all the information. at
 least for the installation trees.

 the .composeinfo file points to the locations for the installation media
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/.composeinfo
 is the f22 workstation version
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os/.treeinfo
 is the .treeinfo file that points at the boot media.   though it does not
 point at the install dvd in the Server version and we do not have anything
 for the livecds.

 I think it would be helpful to know what you really need and what you do
 with it, then we can work out how to best bridge the gap.  To me it seems
 that libosinfo is perhaps not doing things in the best possible way. At
 the least we never considered such use cases when designing and building
 the tools. So it is not all unexpected that you do not get the info that
 you think you should be getting.
