We should consider adding our own dpkg origins file, to make it clear
that Debian Edu the distribution vendor.  See the thread starting in
<URL: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/popcon-developers/2013-May/thread.html#2260 >
(popcon & derivatives dated Tue May 7 13:56:51 UTC 2013), for more
information about its usefulness.

One idea would be to use these values:

% cat /etc/dpkg/origins/debian-edu
Vendor: Debian Edu
Vendor-URL: http://www.skolelinux.org/
Parent: Debian

@Petter: do you still want the above? Or is it still a question?

I'd say Debian Edu is Debian and not a vendor. Debian Edu is more Debian than Ubuntu or Mint for example. Thus, I think just hooking into the debian origins file is sufficient.

Further opinions?
