Looks good, but I don't think leaving users of unstable/testing who
have helped us test, with an unsupported package, would be nice.

Thus, could you please add a dummy transitional binary
"lsb-release-minimal" that depends on lsb-release?


Meow!

Makes sense.

The updated package is now on mentors.d.n:

This looks like a package hijack. Or is this in coordination with the existing 
lsb-release package?

Having `lsb-release-minimal` take over `lsb-relase` has been suggested 
by, and is being coordinated with, the `src:lsb` maintainers:
