Hi,

strace lsb_release -c -s

open("/etc/lsb-release", O_RDONLY)      = 3
fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=105, ...}) = 0
fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=105, ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7ff39b553000
read(3, "DISTRIB_ID=LinuxMint\nDISTRIB_REL"..., 8192) = 105
read(3, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(3, "", 8192)                       = 0
close(3)                                = 0
munmap(0x7ff39b553000, 4096)            = 0
fstat(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 2), ...}) = 0

write(1, "lucid\n", 6lucid
)                  = 6

Title:
  Mythbuntu-Repos fails to install on Mint10-Julia

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When trying to install mythbuntu-repos with gdebi on mint10-julia-64bit: 8.8-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu~auto20101116001839 this fails with E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

In Gdebi, I see that the problem lies in Debconf (or what is handed to it): "use of unitialized value" in some Perl module (see screenshot)

In addition, in mythbuntu-control-centre, occasionally the "Repositories" tab was there twice. When it was there, it was still not possible to select a repo and an upgrade path. Now it's gone again.
