Bug Description

On a system setup for English, UK English keyboard - Sign In on the update page is in German not English.

Further - following click on the first Anmelden - I get a dialogue that seems to get no further.

Can I take it from the second issue that LivePatch is only available to Ubuntu and not flavours?

Confirming on *Ubuntu* 18.04.

If I start 'Software & Updates' from within synaptic then I too get an empty dialog but if I start it as a stand alone application then I am able to log-in with my Ubuntu SSO email and password. I then see a further message in German: "Benutze einen anderen Account...".

Regardless of how it's started - I just get Anmelden and then a
non-functioning dialogue.

With software-properties version 0.96.24.31 the text referred to above now displays correctly in English. Non-functioning dialog is still an issue.
