Package: apt
Version: 0.7.25.3
Severity: normal
(My source file are from bzr repo.)
I am translating apt and found a strange string. The corresponding
source is in cmdline/apt-get.cc, lines around 1649-1660:
-------------
// if we don't remove them, we should show them!
if (doAutoRemove == false && (autoremovelist.empty() == false ||
autoRemoveCount != 0))
{
if (smallList == false)
ShowList(c1out, P_("The following package is automatically installed
and is no longer required:",
"The following packages were automatically installed and are
no longer required:",
autoRemoveCount), autoremovelist, autoremoveversions);
else
ioprintf(c1out, P_("%lu package was automatically installed and is no
longer required.\n",
"%lu packages were automatically installed and are no longer
required.\n", autoRemoveCount), autoRemoveCount);
c1out << _("Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.") << std::endl;
}
-------------
I think following should make it more consistent.
s/The following package is/The following package was/
This is consistency issue. I think this is the best solution.
But if you insist to use "is" here, strings for ioprintf is inconsistent
with this and singular text does not match plural one.
