[Touch-packages] [Bug 1351421] Re: 1 songs played today is not grammatically correct
Hi Andrew, Yes, that's the simplest fix of course. However, care is going to need to be taken to ensure all consumers of libusermetrics apply such a format. I suggest we atleast review all the core apps since although this issue does not affect the functionality of the apps... - the issue is very prominent (you see the welcome screen whenever you switch on the screen) - using the original format creates a bad impression imho (atleast when the phone is set to language=English). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libusermetrics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1351421 Title: 1 songs played today is not grammatically correct Status in Music application for Ubuntu devices: Confirmed Status in “libusermetrics” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If I play a single song in the music app, the welcome shows 1 songs played today.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I can confirm that when using the package music-app on ubuntu-touch using the steps provided by James that I can reproduce the bug. Therefore I have set this bug to confirmed. I have see this with other apps and *thought* this was working for us at one point, however I have just noticed that the photos is now stated in the follow format. photos taken today: b%1/b Which eliminates the issue. ** Changed in: music-app Status: New = Confirmed ** Changed in: music-app Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: music-app Assignee: (unassigned) = Andrew Hayzen (andrew-hayzen) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libusermetrics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1351421 Title: 1 songs played today is not grammatically correct Status in Music application for Ubuntu devices: Confirmed Status in “libusermetrics” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If I play a single song in the music app, the welcome shows 1 songs played today.
