let me clearly state that I love all this.. and what Canonical has
done/is doing for open source.

But, one month to change a single string?
Who's kidding who?

Title:
  In Maverick 'About Ubuntu' displays Natty info

Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “ubuntu-docs” source package in Maverick:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

  [SRU for Maverick]
   * This bug makes users very confused because telling using 11.04 in spite of using 10.10.
   * This bug was introduced in Maverick SRU 10.10.4.
   * Just documentation fix.
     - debdiff: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/61514563/ubuntu-docs_10.10.4.debdiff

  TEST CASE:
   1. Open "System" -> "About Ubuntu" from GNOME menu
   2. Get the wrong text "You are using Ubuntu 11.04 - the Natty Narwhal - released in April 2011 and supported until October 2012."
   3. upgrade to -proposed package
   4. Get the right text "You are using Ubuntu 10.10 - the Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010 and supported until April 2012."

  ----------
  While testing some unrelated proposed updates I also updated 'ubuntu-docs' to 10.10.5 (maverick-proposed) and noticed that clicking on About Ubuntu then displayed Natty info, but upon downgrading to 10.10.4 (maverick-updates) About Ubuntu still displays, "You are using Ubuntu 11.04 - The Natty Narwhal - ..........".

  Version 10.10.3 displays the proper info. This is a very minor thing
  but thought I should report it anyway. I will also reference this bug
  at bug 689789 so Martin Pitt knows about it.
