[Bug 1065789] [NEW] release notes link in installer points to www.ubuntu.com

[Paul Larson]

Public bug reported:

This could actually be a Ubuntu Website bug, but when I click the
release notes link from the installer, I get a web browser opened to
www.ubuntu.com.  It's equally possible that it could be trying to open
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes?os=ubuntu&ver=12.10&lang=en
which also gets quickly redirected to www.ubuntu.com.
