Geoffrey and Barbara,
Does the online help text also need to change?
For example, for the text installer, the help screen says under SIZE:
The recommended size and minimum size for the Oracle Solaris OS
installation are displayed.
Seems like maybe that would need to change slightly.

Geoffrey,
I understand the change is only from "recommend disk space" to "recommended
minimum disk space".
I am OK with that change and can followup with getting that change made in the
Install Guide and in the Release Notes.

This is the change I discussed in email with you in email a couple of weeks
ago. If you are still ok with this change, please confirm on this thread.
Thanks,

Subject: Re: [caiman-discuss] Wording change for recommended disk size
Geoffrey:
Your fix also had documentation impact since we document the disk size
recommendation in the release notes. Since the wording change, we need to
update the release note wording as well.
I had included Barbara Lundquist and I believe a doc impact bug should be filed

Thank you Takeshi for helping me get this right for internationalization.
Below is an updated webrev for review.
BUG: 7097153 Advice seems oddly small for solaris partition
CODE REVIEW:
https://cr.opensolaris.org/action/browse/caiman/ghart/UpdateDiskSizeText2/
DESCRIPTION: Wording improvement for the recommended disk size. Before it
listed the "minimum" and "recommended" size. The new wording makes it clear
that what we are showing is the "minimum" and "recommended minimum" size.
TESTING:
- Confirmed that new test appears in the text and gui installer.
- Verified that the install still succeeds and the OS boots correctly after
install.
Thanks,
Geoffrey

Hi Ginnie,
Regarding current case, the spaces look for indentation and not
padding (for alignment between labels) so problem could be less
than in the padding case. But it's still better to move
the spaces outside of _() so how about to do like this:
+ REC_SIZE_TEXT = _("Recommended minimum: ")
+ self._size_line = DiskScreen.MIN_SIZE_TEXT + min_size_str + \
+ " " + DiskScreen.REC_SIZE_TEXT + rec_size_str
There are two typical types of use of spaces in string literal:
(1) padding for alignment between labels
(2) indentation
As Jack said, key (more problematic) is (1) for localizable strings.
It's often not clear the spaces are for padding for alignment, which
string to align with, and also the other string's length can be changed
when localized.
Spaces for (2) is usually no need to adjust number of spaces so less
problematic than in (1), but it's better to exclude the spaces from
localizable string (move it out from _()).
Thanks,
Takeshi

Hi Geoffrey.
Regarding Ginnie's comment: Takeshi-san told me the same thing about
padding. The issue is that while the padding may be good for the C locale,
it will won't accommodate words of different lengths from other languages.
The key is to do dynamic padding, and adjust the offset of the right-side
words based on the length of the largest left-side word. For an example,
please highlighted lines from 463-497 of support.py see my latest code review:

Hi Geoffrey --
Just one comment on the disk_selection.py file.
Mary did a bug fix not too long ago. It was 7170341.
There was a discussion regarding padded spaces in
the static string, such as what is at line 76.
Takashi said that it would be more appropriate for
internationalization to eliminate padding spaces from
the static string and doing dynamic padding.
I think Mary was going to follow up on this. Can check
and see if that would apply in this case as well?
Other than that, your changes look fine.
thanks,
ginnie
