Hi,

now that the `lsb-base-scripts` branch of sysvinit has been merged [1], 
I prepared version 0.6-3 of `lsb-release-minimal` and uploaded it to 
mentors.d.n.

Version -3 contains a single change: it renames the binary package to 
`lsb-release`, [2] as suggested by Thorsten Glaser.

This makes it possible to remove src:lsb completely.

What are the next steps?
