The real bug here is not their fault, but Ubuntu's fault for letting through
distro-centric branding in the applications rather than keeping it in the
ubuntu-artwork/branding packages.

This is a much a problem when it comes to *wanting* other people to derive
from Ubuntu.  ...Before Linspire (or Edubuntu, or Foo) start deriving from
Ubuntu they are going to have to be able to get a clean (unbranded) package
set to work from.
