ppa-purge in Mint 13 pointing to "oneiric"

[Esteban]

The package "ppa-purge" in Mint 13 (version 0.2.8+bzr56-1linuxmint12 as reported by apt-cache) instead of pointing to "precise", it still points to "oneiric", causing the command to fail when it is executed with the intention to "purge" a ppa and its installed packages.

Relevant part of the code (/usr/sbin/ppa-purge), lines 96 to 99:

# If not set, using defaults
[ -z "$PPAHOST" ] && PPAHOST="ppa.launchpad.net"
[ -z "$PPANAME" ] && PPANAME="ppa"
[ -z "$DIST" ] && DIST="oneiric"

I can confirm this. The distribution name has to be changed from "oneirc" to "precise" before it works correctly.
