I see that the version strings are hardcoded in
data/templates/Ubuntu.info.in, for example for Ubuntu 19.10:

_Description: Ubuntu 19.10 'Eoan Ermine'

_Description: Cdrom with Ubuntu 19.10 'Eoan Ermine'

Not sure if my suggested solution from #2 could be applied on the .in
file, but it would be great if this issue could be finally fixed. It is
really annoying for translators to update these strings manually every
time a new Ubuntu release is out.

Title:
  [RFE] Automatically update the Ubuntu version strings in python-apt

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Every time there is a new Ubuntu release, some strings need to be
  manually translated although the only thing that is changing is the
  Ubuntu version and code name. Please, consider updating these strings
  automatically based on a translated template. It would help many
  translators.

  These strings are:
  Ubuntu xx.yy 'Code Name'
  Cdrom with Ubuntu xx.yy 'Code Name'
