[Bug 999771] Re: myunity incorrectly parses lsb-release

 

correction:
SHELL "source /etc/lsb-release; echo -n $DISTRIB_RELEASE" to Uversion

The -n is needed to prevent Uversion having a newline at the end of it.

Title:
  myunity incorrectly parses lsb-release

Status in MyUnity:
  New

Bug description:
  myunity incorrectly parses the lsb-release file in Main.module.  It makes assumptions about the order of lines.  Since lsb-release is a list of shell variables which can be sourced by other programs, perhaps it would be better to use the shell to parse it, rather than just cat it.  Something more like:
  SHELL "source /etc/lsb-release; echo $DISTRIB_RELEASE" to Uversion
