Regarding #396853,

While lsb_release reports the right level of LSB compliance it looks like

 lsb_release -r

(and -a which includes -r) incorrectly reports "3.1" for the Debian release 
version.

I ran into another package where upstream is using /etc/debian_version to 
differentiate Debian releases. I'm going to recommend that they switch to 
lsb_release. One of the things I discovered about /etc/debian_version is that 
currently it is "4.0" in both etch and sid. It needs to freeze and the sid 
version be set back to "testing/unstable" like it normally is. Maybe the 
lsb-release package could follow the same scheme?

Thanks,
