A few notes to answer some of the questions: - The original string is correctly marked for translation. The reason all arguments are marked for translation is so that languages that need to do so rearrange these arguments in a way that is readable for users. - Mistranslation of one of the arguments is something gettext should have caught. I know gettext supports error checking using {} formatting strings (albeit since relatively recently), so I'm a bit puzzled as to why it didn't issue a warning in Launchpad. Perhaps LP is running on an Ubuntu version that does not yet include the latest gettext?
As for the fix: - For Ubuntu 14.10 we're setting up translations and language packs, so it should be fixed automatically shortly - For Ubuntu 14.04 we're now setting up a schedule [1] for language pack updates and should be fixed there shortly - For Ubuntu 13.10, we'll need to release an on-demand language pack update. ** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Critical -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.
