Editing "About This Computer" section of System Settings in Ubuntu/Elementary OS


Hello all,

I am currently working on rebranding what started as an Elementary OS Freya core build that became stripped in order to easily use Pantheon for a company project. (Because installing a stand alone Pantheon that is stable is a beast project in itself. Been there tried that.) Removing everything that can be seen of the original branding is almost completed, including altering the appropriate .conf files to change the OS name and system info, etc.

However, I can't seem to find where the files or configurations live to alter or even remove the "website" info that redirects to elementary.io, and to change the "help" and "report a problem" links on the "About This Computer" section of the system settings.

Does anyone have a clue? I've checked many locations over the past few months. It's the only remaining Elementary OS branding I can find.

I am asking in the Ubuntu forum since there may be more people here who know where this stuff lives in original Ubuntu.

Thanks so much in advance!
