If an SRU is still required, please follow the procedure outlined here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates
- update the bug description as per template in above page
- write an easy to follow test case ( something like reorder the lsb_release file, reproduce the problem, install package, check it's fixed)
- create a debdiff against precise-proposed with a correct version number and minimal changes & attach it here
- resubscribe ubuntu sponsors

Until above is done, I am unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors.
Good luck.

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
