Bug#624769: lsb-release: wrong output on debian-ports architectures breaks other packages

tags 634769 -patch
thanks

>does the attached patch on lsb_release.py fix this bug ?

Sorry, it doesn’t.

Before:

ara2:/# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable
Release:        testing/unstable
Codename:       n/a

After (with your patch):

ara2:/# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 1.0 (n/a)
Release:        1.0
Codename:       n/a

Expected output similar to:

tg@zigo:~ $ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux unstable (sid)
Release:        unstable
Codename:       sid


If there’s any output I can send you to help debugging this,
please tell me.

bye,
