I'm attaching a screenshot of what it looks like in Hungarian. The effect is different, but I'm adding in case it's part of the same bug ** Attachment added: "What it looks like in Hungarian" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/868947/+attachment/2516647/+files/softwarecenter.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to software-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868947 Title: Heading text is not internationalization-friendly Status in Ubuntu Translations: Triaged Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Have a look at the header in the screenshot, with Software Center having been run with a Catalan locale. It seems that the width of the "Our star apps" text in the header of Software Center is limited to the width of the actual text in English, making any longer strings "overflow" and be written over the tagline. It would be great to either not limit the width (or limit it to a greater value), or let the header grow vertically to allow 2 lines in the heading. If that's not possible, at least a translator comment in the string specifying the max. width would be really useful as a temporary workaround. In any case, I expect this to affect many languages, as translations cannot often be as short as the original English strings. Thanks.
