Public bug reported: Ubuntu version information: Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10
Rhythmbox version information: Installed: 2.97-1ubuntu5 Candidate: 2.97-1ubuntu5 Version table: *** 2.97-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status When I click the "Install additional software required to use this format" button in the Preferences | Music window the spawned dialogue boxes all refer to Python (2.7) as the triggering application, i.e: "Required plugin could not be found Python (v2.7) requires to install plugins to create media files of the following type: Vorbis encoder" I'd at least expect the name to be the application name (Rhythmbox), or even better the X-GNOME-FullName key of the desktop file "Rhythmbox Music Player". These should probably be a separate bug report, but the following issues also stand out to me: 1) the English in the "Required plugin could not be found" dialogue is a little awkward 2) The media files type isn't actually a media file type, but the name of the required software component. Ideally the "not found" dialogue would read something like this example: "Required plugin could not be found Rhythmbox Music Player needs to install plugins to create media files of the following type: Ogg Vorbis but they were not found." ** Affects: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084840 Title: "Install additional software" button launches dialogue(s) which refers to Python (2.7) as the calling application To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1084840/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
