the linked branch has the simple line-wrap fix.
@mpt, there are a few strings in the softwarecenter/db/debfile.py that
are relevant to this bug:
@property
def warning(self):
# FIXME: use more concise warnings
if deb_state == DebPackage.VERSION_NONE:
return utf8(_("Only install this file if you trust the
origin.")) # no existing package installed
if deb_state == DebPackage.VERSION_OUTDATED:
return utf8(_("Please install \"%s\" via your normal
software channels. Only install this file if you trust the origin.")) %
utf8(self.name)
elif deb_state == DebPackage.VERSION_SAME:
return utf8(_("Please install \"%s\" via your normal
software channels. Only install this file if you trust the origin.")) %
utf8(self.name)
elif deb_state == DebPackage.VERSION_NEWER:
return utf8(_("An older version of \"%s\" is available in
your normal software channels. Only install this file if you trust the
origin.")) % utf8(self.name)
Could be of interest as far as rewording the warnings or designing an
alternative dialog.
