Comment 3 for bug 372779

Dear Dr Preining,
if you do not want to help out with ubuntu problems then remove yourself
from the mailing list and from reading bug reports.

Otherwise, please learn some manners and be careful of the way you address
people.

I am frustrated enough about this error damaging my system I do not need
your patronizing tone. You have offended me and you should apologize.
The line that you say is written on the terminal, is not displayed as the
last line where it prints that there is an error and stops the process so it
is reasonable to be overlooked.
Nevertheless, If you require the file

"fmtutil-sys failed. Output has been stored in
/tmp/fmtutil.YDqeucxh"

there are many ways to ask for it. Ways that civilized people use. For your
reference and education here are a few:

1. Could you please add the file /tmp/fmtutil.YDqeucxh to your report?
2. Unfortunately we can't assist you at the moment as we are missing
information contained in the file /tmp/fmtutil.YDqeucxh.
3. Please upload the file /tmp/fmtutil.YDqeucxh so that we can assist you.
....

I attach the file.

Regards,

Dr. Pavlos Antoniou
