[Bug 584452] [NEW] Rewording to make it sound less specific (page 8)

 

Public bug reported:

I think the below sentence should have 'Debian-based' removed. Ubuntu is
(according to Distrowatch) the most popular linux distro, and with
Debian-based in there, it makes it seem as if it is very specific and
not popular at all.

i.e. my chocolate flavoured ice cream is the most popular ice cream that is flavoured chocolate in my small village 
>>  my chocolate flavored ice cream is the most popular ice cream


Ubuntu spread quickly, the size of the community rapidly increased, and it soon became the most popular Debian-based Linux distribution available
