Bug description:
[ SRU Justification ]
UBUNTU_CODENAME was added by the snapd team, then proposed upstream in a more
generic way. Upstream settled on VERSION_CODENAME, and we should include that
as well, in case third party (or, indeed, future versions of our own) software
decide to start looking for it.
[ SRU Test Case ]
Check diffs of both source package and installed os-release, make sure
nothing's changed except VERSION_CODENAME, and that the value is correct.
[ Regression Potential ]
Nein.
[ Original Report ]
The os-release specification was updated in systemd > 230 to also include a
VERSION_CODENAME parameter:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/646b997c118e261c5ececc434dd40d0dbdbac4d8
Please replace the custom UBUNTU_CODENAME parameter by
VERSION_CODENAME in yakkety and add VERSION_CODENAME to /etc/os-
release to all stable releases.
