Title:
Software Sources shows codenames not version numbers
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
In the updates tab software-properties shows codenames such as
'oneiric-updates' and 'oneiric-proposed'. As I understand it we
shouldn't really show the codename to the user. It also seems somewhat
redundant, it's not like that screen would ever have anything other
than $current_release-* in it. I can see why the 3rd party sources
might display codenames as users may (for whatever reason) want to add
the source for an older (or newer) release on a 3rd party site to get
an app.
See screenshot.
