Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

There is one string that can cause some problems to translators. The
string is this one, locate in UpdateManager.py:

"%(count_str)s%(download_str)s"

This string will be "expanded" with two other strings previously
defined. The problem is that the translators comment left before this
string says that it is possible to invert the order of the strings
shown. This can be a problem to translators since of the two strings
that will form the final concatenated one, only the "count_str" (the
first one) has the final white space. If translators don't know this,
and they invert the order, the result would be a long string hard to
comprehend.

I think it is safe to remove the ending white space from the "count_str"
string, and add it to this one.

I'll attach this trivial patch.

Thanks.
