After the last update, my restricted manager works fine...

I have same error after updating to gutsu. I think the error in russian language pack. I modifed string in line 242, and restricted manager begin work.

[Roman Prokopovich (solinger2)]

You must open with any editor file RestrictedManagerCommon.py.
Go to line 234. add to the end: 'Some text')
All other strings (lines 235-243) must be commented with sign #.

Sorry for poor english :)

Ubuntu developers must change translations this text:

Proprietary drivers do not have public source code that %(os)s developers are free to modify. They represent a risk to you because they are only available on the types of computer chosen by the manufacturer, and security updates to them depend solely on the responsiveness of the manufacturer. %(os)s cannot fix or improve these drivers.

from:

Проприетарные (патентованные) драйвера не имеют открытого исходного кода, который разработчики %(s) могли бы изменить. Такие драйверы снижают надёжность и стабильность вашей системы, потому что доступны только для типов компьютеров выбранных производителем драйвера и оперативность обновлений безопасности для них зависит только от их производителя. %(s) не может исправить или улучшить эти драйвера.

Restricted Manager in Turkish doesn't work either because of "%(os)s" changing. Also Totem and some other programs either. Can't we make a function to check these wrong translations? I wrote this to Brainstorm too: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/5134/
