Thanks for the links. Maybe Mozilla wouldn’t mind us hiding the distribution info altogether, though I doubt it. I think it’s perfectly reasonable for them to require an easy way for users to distinguish customized versions of Firefox.

Fortunately, it’s a mistake to suggest that hiding it is the only solution to this problem. It certainly isn’t the solution I suggested nine years ago. The problem is not the visibility of the data, it’s the contents of the data.

I don’t know where our current distribution.ini is (it doesn’t seem to be linked anywhere from <https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox>). But if I read the upstream code correctly, the only part of this bug that’s blameable on upstream is the hyphen.
