[Bug 418203] Re: "Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0" doesn't make sense

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.
