After checking that the file /usr/bin/lsb_realease contains the -Es flag I undid my changes from post #30.
I have not received the error after that.

So it seems like Barry Warsaw was spot on regarding the -Es flag.

I updated my machine after making the changes in #30, so I cannot tell whether the -Es flag was included in that update or if it was actually there before. All I can say is that with the -Es flag I no longer receive this error.
