[Bug 80618] Re: adept-installer crashes when clicking next on 'there seems to be an update' dialog

[Michael D. Stemle, Jr.]

What 
I found was that whenever you ran it on something with a distro name (e.g. 
edgy, feisty) was not found in the ubuntu meta-release file on the changelogs 
site, it defaulted to warty.  Then, when it tried to use the release notes 
file that the meta-release file pointed to for warty, it ended up with a null 
pointer because warty doesn't have a release notes URL in that file.  We 
didn't start doing that until Dapper.  So I just threw in some checking, and 
if parseMetafile() comes back thinking that the current distro has a 
different name than the one we passed in, we assume there are no possible 
upgrades that can be performed.

** Changed in: adept (Ubuntu)
