Bug Description
I've noticed different behaviour on apps.ubuntu.com URLs depending on the browser:
So going to this URL:
https:/
- Firefox takes me to https:/
- Chromium takes me to https:/
I believe both browsers should take users to the url of the latest distro where the app was available, rather thatn just the latest Ubuntu distro released.

Some more info after talking to Michael on IRC:
<noodles775> Thanks dpm
dpm: so Chromium is taking you to the distroseries which it detected from your browser (without checking if the app existed there--bad)
<noodles775> whereas your FF version doesn't tell us the distroseries that you're using, so it defaults to the configured release (again without checking though...). Should be a straight-forward fix.
<dpm> noodles775, you're right, I hadn't realized Chromium also provided the distro series!
