This still results in:

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

The most important thing is probably the Codename (always sid, as
debian-ports only carries unstable, experimental and a 'unreleased'
suite per architecture).

Thanks for caring,
