Open the Network Manager Connection Editor (nm-connection-editor). 2. Select a wired connection and click on Edit. A dialog appears asking you to enter your password. That dialog shows the "System policy prevents modification of system settings" message untranslated in my Spanish desktop. This message can't be translated, because there's not in the network-manager Launchpad template nor the system-tools-backends template: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/network- manager/+pots/networkmanager/es/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=policy https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/system- tools-backends/+pots/system-tools- backends/es/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=policy This is a high visibility string that should be translated like similar strings from other authorization dialogs. I attach an screenshot to illustrate the problem.
