Public bug reported:

This specific bug is about neowofetch reporting Ubuntu version
incorrectly.

This issue was fixed upstream* (and people recommend replacing the
preexisting neowofetch script with the one from hyfetch's master
branch**) but is still present in the latest package available to this
day.

Ubuntu release: 24.04

The version of neowofetch installed: 1.4.11-1

What I expected to happen: Ubuntu version being reported as "Ubuntu
24.04.1 LTS x86_64"

What happened instead: Ubuntu version being reported as "Ubuntu
trixie/sid x86_64"
