Public bug reported: After upgrading to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS I ran journalctl -f and noticed that gnome-shell was spamming errors at the rate of 12 lines every second:

My locale is lt_LT.UTF-8, which is relevant. This is caused by a mistaken translation of the quote characters in "'24h'" which is used as the default value for a particular gsettings key. Specifically, this translation: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/noble/+source/gsettings- desktop-schemas/+pots/gsettings-desktop-schemas/lt/232/+translate. Since I'm a member of the Lithuanian translators team, I've fixed the translation error in translations.launchpad.net, but my gnome-shell will continue to spam multiple errors every second until an updated language- pack-gnome-lt-base is released. (I've also submitted a fixed translation upstream to l10n.gnome.org.) Workaround: run dconf-editor, find /org/gnome/desktop/interface/clock- format, uncheck Use default value, click Apply.
