[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

[IMPACT]
missing version string in ./.disk/info causes an error in usb-creator:
ValueError: Invalid version string '"Raring"',
then it fails to create a usb startup disk.

[Test Case]
 1. create an raring image with -proposed package
 2. confirm that ./.disk/info in the built image contains the string "13.04" like:
      Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50
 3. confirm that usb-creator-gtk can create an usb startup disk with the built image

[Regression Potential]
minimal
 - metadata update
 - adding a missing case, no regression for existing cases

[Other Info]
Debian already fixed it at 4.0~a12-1/experimental.


-- original description --

.disk/info in a built image of raring does not have version string "13.04" like:
Ubuntu  "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50

expected content is like:
Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50

ubuntu-defaults-builder using live-build is also affected.

Missing version number is invalid for usb-creator and cause an error,
then failed to create usb startup disk.
