Single quotes to remark that "action" is a keyword, the same reason why I quoted it again now, people usually do that when using a "meta-language". I've used it consistently in all of the messages. And since the leading word is a keyword, I don't think that it's appropriate to use capital letters. Additionally, I think that the bug report made complete sense and that using strange wording and internal name that aptitude has been using for years for these error messages is fundamentally wrong. So IMO overall the changed text is actually much more informative and an improvement. Cheers. _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
