Indeed the wording could be improved, but I don't think I'll make another upstream release of the gnome-system-tools now that they are deprecated. And since it's been that way in Ubuntu since Lucid, I'm not sure it's worth patching it for Natty (translations...). But I've opened a bug[1 ] against gnome-control-center, which replaces users-admin in GNOME 3 and uses the same string.
About the comma, I don't understand the problem: it's not listed as an allowed character, so it's expected that you can't use it. I'm closing the Ubuntu translations task as that's not a translation bug at all. On the contrary, for example in French, the wording is better than in English and doesn't suffer from this ambiguity. 1: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647851 ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #647851 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647851 ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: ubuntu-translations Status: New => Invalid ** Summary changed: - Instructions for user name are wrong and wording is misleading + Instructions for user name are misleading -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761180 Title: Instructions for user name are misleading -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
