[Bug 286924] Re: Create a USB startup disk menu entry should be named USB startup disk creator
This bug was fixed in the package usb-creator - 0.1.12 --- usb-creator (0.1.12) jaunty; urgency=low [ Evan Dandrea ] * Correct grammatical typo in the GTK frontend (LP: #297569). * Depend on mcopy as syslinux only recommends it (LP: #296093). * Mark more strings for translation. Thanks István Nyitrai (LP: #310804). * Change the Debian maintainer to the Ubuntu Installer Team. * Work around a long standing GTK label bug by using a Python version of * libview's WrapLabel. * Fix nonsense 1 byte writes of the casper-rw ext3 loopback fs (LP: #313364). * Basic file copy error handling. * Sync the disk at the end of installation. * Better handle filesystem-on-disk in the bootloader installing code.

Thanks, maybe, yes. I on the other hand think that these update laws are made for us, and not the other way round. And sometimes we get their slaves because we follow them too strictly.

Luca: fwiw, disc is used for media which is a flat disc (i.e. CD/DVD). disk is used for everything else (even though they often contain flat discs, such as floppy disks and hard disks do). It's certainly true that USB memory sticks/disks are often called thumb drives, but they should never be called discs. -- Create a USB startup disk menu entry should be named USB startup disk creator https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 286924] Re: Create a USB startup disk menu entry should be named USB startup disk creator
Jonathan, thank you for the correction regarding that the package is currently untranslatable; seeing the french translation included in the patch made me assume otherwise. Chris, I think you may be overreacting here - I did not decline the patch, only the Intrepid task for backporting it to Intrepid which is already released. According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates, SRU's are only allowed for severe regressions, data loss situations, etc. The patch itself is fine, but will need to go into Jaunty.

You should know what you are doing here on the long run, Bryce Harrington: Someone tries to help Ubuntu, doesn't just complain but fixes a bug (doesn't matter how cosmetically it is), provides a patch which is working perfectly - if you want you can even cut out the French translation - costs you 1 minute. Then you/Ubuntu are declining the patch. I know it is not critical. But I often see this in Ubuntu - this is very frustrating for people who want to help. Waiting 6 month for a translation update or a string change is not that easy to understand.

[Bug 286924] Re: Create a USB startup disk menu entry should be named USB startup disk creator
Declined the backport task since it'd break translations, and is just a cosmetic change really. But it looks acceptable for the Jaunty development release. ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- Create a USB startup disk menu entry should be named USB startup disk creator https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Bryce Harrington How could it possibly break translations when this included by default package is not even translatable...

Applying the patch, the .desktop file will use: Name=USB Startup Disk Creator GenericName=USB Startup Disk Creator Comment=Create a USB startup disk using a CD or disc image IMHO: * disk vs disc - the usb mass storage devices are referred as thumb drives or USB drives in GVFS or ; better use disc (not disk, at least this seems the convention in GNOME and HAL) only for removable media like CD/DVD. See gvfs/monitor/hal/hal-utils.c and gvfs/monitor/hal/ghaldrive.c * USB - we really need to have this (technical) info in name? See GNOME HIG about this. * Creator - note that the button in dialog is Make, not Create * the Name entry should be short, really short.

Well, it shouldn't be in the Administration menu at all. It's not for administering your system, it's a tool for creating installation disks.
