Bug Description

[IMPACT]
missing version string in ./.disk/info causes an error in usb-creator:
ValueError: Invalid version string '"Raring"',
then it fails to create a usb startup disk.

[Test Case]
 1. create an raring image with -proposed package
 2. confirm that ./.disk/info in the built image contains the string "13.04" like:
      Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50
 3. confirm that usb-creator-gtk can create an usb startup disk with the built image

[Regression Potential]
minimal
 - metadata update
 - adding a missing case, no regression for existing cases

[Other Info]
Debian already fixed it at 4.0~a12-1/experimental.

-- original description --

.disk/info in a built image of raring does not have version string "13.04" like:
Ubuntu "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50

expected content is like:
Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring" - Build i386 LIVE Binary 20130430-06:50

ubuntu-defaults-builder using live-build is also affected.

Missing version number is invalid for usb-creator and cause an error, then failed to create usb startup disk.

Hello Nobuto, or anyone else affected,

Accepted live-build into raring-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/live-build/3.0~a57-1ubuntu6.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
