Since you are curious, I did this:
sed -e "s&#OSNAME#&$(OSNAME)&g" etc/os-release \
> debian/tmp/etc/os-release
There was already an OSNAME variable in debian/rules, and it was
already used to get the "nice and complete" name of the OS to be used
in /etc/motd and other files, so doing the same in /etc/os-release has
been very easy.
Thanks.
