Aptitude talks about new packages added to Ubuntu, not Trisquel

Project:Trisquel
Version:7.0
Component:Programs
Category:bug report
Priority:normal
Assigned:malberts
Status:active
Description

In a terminal, launch aptitude (with or without sudo permissions):

"--- New Packages (N)"

"These packages have been added to Ubuntu since the last time you cleared..."

It should say "Trisquel".

The source files responsible are:

aptitude-0.6.4/src/pkg_grouppolicy.cc
aptitude-0.6.4/debian/patches/03_branding

Trisquel Bug #5052 (Comprehensive Trisquel Branding Issue Page)

There are actually some more places in Aptitude's source with messages containing the word "Ubuntu" or some Ubuntu URL.

I will take a look at it.

This patch also breaks localizations. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1053785.

For the next development cycle (of aptitude) we will look at options for this, such as using dpkg-vendor instead of hard-coding the branding.

A real rebranding of aptitude and removal of all mentions of non-free sections is quite a lot of work. I started to hack and my diff has grown beyond 3000 lines. What should I/we do?
