Stephane? So far we've never bothered write those descriptions (I just put the channel info in the description at the moment) or get any of that translated, but I'd expect that when we hit RTM we'll be asked to do it. Pushing updates to end users without a localized description is IMO unacceptable, so this feature is still going to be required down the line. -- Stéphane Graber Ubuntu developer http://www.canonical.com -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215586 Title: The u/i cannot handle the array-of-dictionaries update descriptions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-system-image/+bug/1215586/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Pushing updates to end users without a localized description is IMO unacceptable, so this feature is still going to be required down the line. So that we can implement this, could you put some dummy information in there? It can be just lorem ipsum in a few languages (not actually translated), but it'll be enough to write the user interface and then we can actually display it when it is provided properly. -- Iain Lane [ i...@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ la...@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ la...@ubuntu.com ] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215586 Title: The u/i cannot handle the array-of-dictionaries update descriptions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-system-image/+bug/1215586/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
