Hi -release,
I didn't get the memo on the whole /etc/debian_version thing and would like
to upload live-magic 1.5+lenny1 to stable.
Live Magic parses this file in order to hide the selection of a distribution
to build, defaulting to allowing lenny if we are running lenny - we cannot
guarantee that squeeze or sid will always be bootstrappable from lenny's
{c,}debootstrap and we don't want to annoy users by it breaking.
The relevant changelog entry is:
live-magic (1.5+lenny1) stable-proposed-updates; urgency=low
* Don't assume /etc/debian_version will contain the string "5.0\n" for
the entirety of the lenny release - just check for a prefix of "5.0".
