Channel Definition
------------------

The .info files allow to specify a set of default channels that is available
in the dialog "add channel". The .info file whose name corresponds to the
LSB release name is used, e.g. 'Ubuntu.info' on a Ubuntu system.

Furthermore all .info files are used to render the channels presented in the
sources list more user friendly.
