Description Dan Callaghan 2014-12-12 00:24:26 UTC 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
19.0

Steps to Reproduce:
Not sure. We have an OS major with name "" in our internal Beaker instance, so it can happen *somehow*. One possible way:
1. beaker-import --family= http://<sometree>
Another possible way:
1. bkr distros-edit-version --name=<somedistroname> ""
(Note that these are destructive operations so be careful if you try to reproduce the problem.)

Actual results:
Beaker creates an OS major whose name is the empty string.

Expected results:
The distro import attempt or renaming attempt should be rejected with a useful error message.

Additional info:
Distro name most likely has the same problem and should be fixed in the same way.
