base-files (9.4ubuntu3) xenial; urgency=medium

  * etc/os-release:
    - add UBUNTU_CODENAME=xenial (LP: #1520154)
      (having distro specific fields is ok according to the spec)

Title:
  /etc/os-release should contain "codename" (like DISTRIB_CODENAME in
  lsb_release)

Status in Snappy:
  Confirmed
Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  to use os-release instead of lsb_release (which adds a python
  dependency to the snappy image and is effectively duplication of
  functionality) /etc/os-release should contain "codename", since the
  value is needed for various container operations (lxd,docker) to
  obtain images
