No, the problem isn't the version of lsb-base, it's that lsb-base isn't
essential and hence can't be assumed to be present without a dependency.

The solution is probably to make it essential, since it already is
pseudo-essential, but I was holding the bug open until that actually
happens.  Right now, you technically have to have the dependency.
