Description

The installation documentation uses the program lsb_release to determine the Debian version.

apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 474A19E8
 echo "deb http://www.rudder-project.org/apt-2.10/ $(lsb_release -cs) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rudder.list
 aptitude update

This is not working on a bare installed VM, simply because the program is not available. The user has to provide the brand name by hand.

Priority is very low.
