Hi John. Thank you for your patch. I have three small suggestions and one big suggestion.
Small suggestions: 1. For readability, instructional text -- whether it appears in a UI or in help -- should not include any ellipses in labels that it is referring to. So "Updates Available..." should instead be "Updates Available". 2. The old text had the same problem, but since you're changing it: UI text should use typographical apostrophes ’ and quotes “”, not Ascii quotes ' "". Abbreviated example of how to do this in Python: _(u"If you don\u2019t want them now, choose \u201cUpdates Available\u201d later.") 3. The accessible title of the last menu is "Device", so the text should refer to it as "the device menu", not "the Session menu". The big suggestion is that I'd actually prefer the second sentence to be removed altogether. :-) Two reasons for this. First, though the menu has the accessible title "Device", that's not obvious (as you demonstrated yourself), and there's nothing visible that hints which menu is "the device menu" -- so the instruction probably isn't useful anyway. And second, I'd like to move towards the design shown in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#alert>, where the only secondary text is context-sensitive (e.g. "The computer will need to restart afterwards."). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/942590 Title: update-manager misguiding text To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/942590/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
