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

 

Indeed, this is not present in quantal, but it would be nice if this
could be fixed for precise.  I'm attaching a full debdiff that fixes
this bug and the two others for which I have created a patch.

Can someone please sponsor this upload?

  myunity incorrectly parses lsb-release

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
