Here is my StableReleaseUpdates application. 1. A statement explaining the impact of the bug on users and justification for backporting the fix to the stable release
The bug means that people using Ubuntu in a language other than English will see an untranslated string on the front page of the Help Center - "Assistive Tools", because this string is a deviation from upstream and therefore translations need to be imported into the package from Rosetta. This was not done in time for the Intrepid release. 2. An explanation of how the bug has been addressed in the development branch, including the relevant version numbers of packages modified in order to implement the fix. I've imported translations from Rosetta into the bzr branch for the gnome-user-docs package and bumped the version number to ubuntu2. The bzr branch is here, and the relevant revision is 734. https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/gnome-user-docs/ubuntu- intrepid 3. A minimal patch applicable to the stable version of the package. If preparing a patch is likely to be time-consuming, it may be preferable to get a general approval from the SRU team first. I'm afraid that the debdiff is very large, because all the po files in the package are touched. I'm not attaching it because it is over 20MB. I'm uploading it here: http://doc.ubuntu.com/~mdke/gnome-user- docs_ubuntu2.debdiff 4. Detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug. These should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes the problem. Please mark this with a line "TEST CASE:". The bug is easy to reproduce, just open yelp in another language (e.g. $ LANG=fi yelp) and note the untranslated string on the left hand side ("Assistive Tools"). 5. A discussion of the regression potential of the patch and how users could get inadvertently effected. I can't think of any potential regressions. I've installed a binary on my intrepid system without problem and have tested yelp in several languages to verify the fix.
