Gtk-error due to a non-existing HTML tag (resulting from a typo in translation)

[xatr0z]

Starting Ubuntu Tweak 0.6.2 with Dutch translation, I get the following error 3 times in the terminaloutput:

(ubuntu-tweak:11477): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup: Fout in regel 1 teken 32: ‘bSchoonmaakextensies<’ is geen geldige naam: ‘<’

Also the Settings window shows incorrect HTML tags along the string.

This is because the string <b>Janitor Extensions</b> was incorrectly translated to <bSchoonmaakextensies</b> (note the missing > character). See: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu-tweak/0.6.x/+pots/ubuntu-tweak/nl/28/+translate

This particular string is now fixed in the Dutch translation. But it could be that another translator makes the same mistake of creating a non-existing HTML-character in the future.

The expected behaviour would be to ignore or skip the non-existing HTML tags. It shouldn't give an error or display the incorrect <b....</b> tags to the user.

I'm not entirely sure if this is because of Ubuntu Tweak or some external Gtk HTML-parser, so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place.

Thanks for your report.

I will add more comments to help translator to avoid this problem
