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 <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <[email protected]>
