Package: lsb-release
Version: 3.2-27
Severity: important
All debian-ports.org architectures [alpha armhf avr32 hppa
(maybe)hurd-i386 (maybe)kfreebsd-amd64 (maybe)kfreebsd-i386
m68k powerpcspe sh4 sparc64] will have broken output:
(pbuild17226)root@aranym:/ # lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable
Release: testing/unstable
Codename: n/a
The cause is this:
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Apr 27 2011, 15:17:58)
[GCC 4.4.6] on linux2

[(100, {'suite': 'now'}), (500, {'origin': 'Debian Ports', 'suite':
'unreleased', 'version': '1.0', 'component': 'main', 'label':
'ftp.debian-ports.org'}), (500, {'origin': 'Debian Ports', 'suite': 'unstable',
'version': '1.0', 'component': 'main', 'label': 'ftp.debian-ports.org'}), (500,
{'origin': 'ARAnyM from Debian Ports', 'suite': 'sid', 'component': 'main',
'label': 'tg68k'})]
As you can see, the “origin” and “label” differ, which leads to
not being recognised as “sid”.
Workaround:
# cat >/etc/lsb-release <<'EOF'
DISTRIB_RELEASE=unstable
DISTRIB_CODENAME=sid
EOF
Please fix lsb-release to recognise debian-ports.org archives
if no Debian archive is found, because this breaks packages
like gcc-defaults which read out the codename information to
find out, for example, whether to use multilib.l
