Public bug reported:
At the bottom of the SSO login dialog there is a message asking the user
if he/she accepts the Ubuntu One Terms and conditions.
It is composed of two translatable strings:
YES_TO_TC = _('I agree with the %(app_name)s ') # Terms&Conditions button
TC = _('Terms & Conditions')
The string should not be split. This makes it impossible to provide a
good translation. In many languages the order needs to be rearranged to
make it grammatically correct.
A couple of examples:
In Catalan:
* Current translation (incorrect): "Estic d'acord amb Ubuntu One Condicions
generals"
* A correct translation: "Estic d'acord amd les condicions generals de l'Ubuntu
One"
In Spanish:
* Current translation (incorrect): "Estoy de acuerdo con Ubuntu One Términos y
condiciones"
* A correct translation: "Estoy de acuerdo con los términos y condiciones de
Ubuntu One"

Thanks!
