== How does a Kernel Team script determine what Ubuntu series the bug was filed against? ==

The algorithm for determining the series a bug was filed against is given below. The order is significant and indicates the order the checks are made. As soon as a series is found, no further checks are made:

 1. Look in the bug description for:
   1. "DistroRelease" which apport has been putting into the description for quiet some time.
   1. "Linux version string"
   1. "Description:" name/value pair which can contain the series version.
   1. "Release:" name/value pair which can contain the series version.
   1. The string: "Ubuntu <series>".

 1. Look in log files that the original submitter has attached to the bug:
   1. "kern.log"
   1. "BootDmesg.txt"
   1. "Dmesg.txt" / "dmesg.log"
   1. "alsa-info.log"
   1. "xorg.0.log"

 1. Look at the tags that have been added to the bug for a valid series. Note, there can be multiple specified so the first one found "wins".

 1. Look in the bug title for a valid series name. Again there can be multiple and again, the first found "wins".
