Comment 6 for bug 731376

QA Notes:
I have fluendo-dvd installed, but am on natty. There is no natty version published in the ppa, when clicking on "Be the first to review" I would see only: "The origin of the application can not be detected. Entering a review is not possible".

With mvo's suggestion, I temporarily updated my sources.list to say maverick (for this ppa), apt-get updated, and then retried. This allowed me to write a new review, but the client must be sending the real distroseries when submitting the review, as the response coming back from the server was: "package fluendo-dvd not in lp-ppa-commercial-ppa-uploaders-fluendo-dvd natty for natty" (which is expected).

I can verify that the reviews server is aware of the sca packages with:
