This bug is not very clear. The fact that we have sometimes two tools to manage settings about the same issue (printing, users...) is known and will be slowly fixed using PolicyKit. This is mainly an upstream problem.
But the second part of this bug is IMHO wrong and has to be discussed: > I think that generally, the names of the launchers under "Preferences" should > emphasize the words "Set" and > "Modify" whereas the names of launchers under "Administration" should > emphasize the words "Manage", > "System", "Global", and things like that. This won't be done because making the labels longer in the submenu is bad: it's redundant to repeat for each item "Set", "Modify", and does not really help. And this would require many patches to each package, making us diverge from upstream. Else, the "Preferences" or "Administration" menus should be clear enough so that you know what every child in them is about. Or we can simply use a single menu, but this is a long-term approach. So I guess you should make this bug clearer: there are two very vague issues here, which is not a good idea to get a bug fixed. Anyway this would require discussion, and leaved as-it-is, this bug will never get attention nor work. Or just close it. -- Launchers under "System > Preferences" and "System > Administration" have similar names, leads to confusion. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
