[patpi]

There is a font syntax issue in main Control Panel window (Polish version of GUI). We have visible syntax like "<span font_size="small">" , "&nbsp" and "</span>" in between normal text.

Please see an attached image for screenshot of this bug.

Hello!

I'm not being able to reproduce this issue. I installed the language pack for polish, as you can see I have the translation for the control panel as per:

nessita@ernst:~$ ls -l /usr/share/locale-langpack/pl/LC_MESSAGES/ubuntuone-control-panel*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8783 2011-04-10 14:30 /usr/share/locale-langpack/pl/LC_MESSAGES/ubuntuone-control-panel.mo

The panel that I'm getting is: http://ubuntuone.com/p/oft/
Polish lang pack is version: 1:11.04+20110407

Can you please add detail instructions about how to reproduce? Thanks!

Hi Naty,

I just installed Natty Narwhal BETA2 - fresh installation, not update from previous versions - and I have updated all the packages from UpdateManager. That is all what I did on this system. What more informations do you need?

To confirm or deny this bug report i've asked Ubuntu community members in Poland if they also see this bug. i've created forum post here: http://ubuntu.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=210&t=145056
( google translate in english here: http://translate.google.pl/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=pl&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=pl&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntu.pl%2Fforum%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ff%3D210%26t%3D145056&act=url ). I will update this bug if i have more info from them.

The problem seems to be with the &nbsp; characters: the translatable string contains Pango markup language, which does not support all html entities:

http://developer.gnome.org/pango/stable/PangoMarkupFormat.html

You can see that the use of &nbsp; is not supported, which is why the format is not being applied. The solution is to fix the translation by removing all the &nbsp; elements:

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/ubuntuone-control-panel/+pots/ubuntuone-control-panel/pl/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=folderu

Note that there are more translations in that template which contain the nbsp, and which you should probably fix as well:

I have changed translation in launchpad.

[patpi (patpi-pp)]

Still two other translations needs to be fixed -> https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/ubuntuone-control-panel/+pots/ubuntuone-control-panel/pl/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=nbsp

[TSr (tsr)]

Done

I can see this fixed in Natty - closing.
