(was Put our name in /etc/lsb-release)

/etc/lsb-release is the major source for distribution information. Right now it looks like this:

DISTRIB_ID="elementary OS"
DISTRIB_RELEASE=0.2
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="elementary OS Luna"
DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise

Seems obvious what we need to do here.

More investigation is needed. /etc/lsb-release belongs to the base-files package which holds more distribution-related information. And here is a (probably outdated) listing of distribution-specific files: http://askubuntu.com/questions/83521/where-do-i-need-to-change-ubuntu-when-naming-my-own-custom-distribution

Just a side note, @myguidingstar did some preliminary work for this at https://github.com/gokien/gokien-lsb. But the package elementary-lsb has been deprecated upstream and replaced by base-files.

Looks like we also need to patch ubuntu-branding which is a package holding customized Ubuntu logo in some mini-games. Low priority.
