Fix the Debian packaging script on systems with no codename
When calling `make deb-pkg` on a system with no codename (for example Arch Linux), lsb_release sometimes outputs `n/a` as the codename. This breaks dpkg-parsechangelog, which can't process the changelog correctly. Signed-off-by: Marcin Mielniczuk <marmistrz.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.com>
