Yes, you are right. I was relying on my obviously faulty and aged memory, so I checked on my two remaining CentOS 5 boxes. There is no /etc/centos-release file there at all, only an /etc/redhat-release, so obviously not a symlink at all. More coffee.

I prefer tea. On my C5 I have

.l /etc/redhat-release -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28 Sep 19 2014 /etc/redhat-release

However on C6

.l /etc|.g release -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 27 Oct 23 12:41 centos-release lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 14 Dec 14 18:08 redhat-release -> centos-release lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 14 Dec 14 18:08 system-release -> centos-release
