The applicable doc page is an upstream one. I assume this will make it upstream sooner or later, and that the doc page will be modified if needed, even if the latter step will lag a bit. The proposed change is not important enough to create a temporary Ubuntu specific page. So from a docs POV this is fine.
As regards translatable strings: Even if they exist in fprintd, the translations won't automatically move to the gnome-control-center-2.0 translation domain. Therefore, whether it's uploaded before the release or afterwards as an SRU, please notify the translators on the ubuntu- translators list as soon as the new g-c-c strings are available for translation in LP. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865845 Title: [UIFe] No UI indication for fingerprint enrolling progress, no way to enroll multiple fingers Status in OEM Priority Project: New Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in gnome-control-center source package in Focal: In Progress Bug description: There is no progress information shows to user while enrolling fingerprint if the number of required enrollment steps is greater than 10. It might confuse user thinking it as freeze failure. Also it's not possible to enroll more than one finger. steps: 1. enroll fingerprint in gnome-control-center 2. click 'Next' on the enrolling page 3. There is no message tell user that it need at least 12 times touching fingerprint. 4. user press fingerprint for 5 times, there is no way to cancel enrolling. 5. user wait for timeout and get error message for timeout notification. 6. after 5. user page of setting will always failed and show no user found. And this also introduce some critical issue of step 6 that user page in settings failed forever. However if the enrollment succeeds: 7. If trying to add a new fingerprint, the user is forced to delete its enrolled prints So, the suggestion would be: 1. remind user to press 12 times on fingerprint for step 3. 2. show the progress during user pressing fingerprint for step 4. 3. Allow to enroll more fingers As per this, GNOME design has produced some artwork that we want to implement to fix all these issues: - https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/settings-mockups/-/issues/18 There will be few new strings, although most of the action events are already covered by the fprintd translations. UI will change quite a lot, but the current documentation [1] should not be affected by the change, being quite generic, but in case it might be updated to be clearer.
