** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: software-center
  
  The following things where left untranslated when i compiled a web version of the help files.
  It seams to relate to line breaks in the original files that are not in the POT.
  
  "If you are familiar with reporting bugs in software, you can help out
  by reporting the problem to the Ubuntu developers.  Most programs have a
  <guimenuitem>Report a Problem</guimenuitem> item in their
  <guimenu>Help</guimenu> menu."
  
  "In the <guilabel>Get Software</guilabel> section, find the thing you
  want to install.  If you already know its name, try typing the name in
  the search field.  Or try searching for the type of program you want
  (like “spreadsheet”).  Otherwise, browse the list of departments."
  
  "To install something with Ubuntu Software Center, you need
  administrator access and a working Internet connection. (If you set up
  Ubuntu on this computer yourself, you have administrator access
  automatically.)"
  
  "For most programs, once they are installed, you can launch them from
  the Applications menu. (Utilities for changing settings may appear
  inside System → Preferences or System → Administration instead)."
  
  "To find out where to launch a new program, navigate to the screen for
  that program in Ubuntu Software Center, if it is not still being
  displayed. The menu location should be displayed on that screen, below
  the colored bar."
  
  "Some items, such as media playback or Web browser plugins, do not
  appear in the menus. They are used automatically when Ubuntu needs them.
  For a Web browser plugin, you may need to close the browser and reopen
  it before the plugin will be used."
  
  "To remove software, you need administrator access. (If you set up
  Ubuntu on this computer yourself, you have administrator access
  automatically.)"
  
  "Select the item in the list, and choose Remove. You may need to enter
  your Ubuntu password."
  
  "If a program is open when you remove it, usually it will stay open even
  after it is removed. As soon as you close it, it will no longer be
  available."
  
  "Sometimes if you try to remove one item, Ubuntu Software Center will
  warn you that other items will be removed too. There are two main
  reasons this happens."
  
  "Multiple applications are sometimes provided as a single package. If
  any of them are installed, all of them are installed. And if any of them
  are removed, all of them are removed. Ubuntu Software Center cannot
  remove them individually, because it has no instructions on how to
  separate them."
  
  "You can use the Main Menu settings to hide unwanted items without
  removing them from the computer. In Ubuntu, you can find Main Menu
  inside System → Preferences. In Ubuntu Netbook Edition, it is in
  Settings → Preferences."
  
  "Customizing the menu bar"
  
  "Some of the software available for Ubuntu is maintained by Canonical.
  Canonical engineers ensure that security fixes and other critical
  updates are provided for these programs."
  
  "Other software is maintained by the Ubuntu developer community. Any
  updates are provided on a best-effort basis."
  
  "To pay for commercial software, you need an Internet connection, and an
  Ubuntu Single Sign On account or Launchpad account. If you do not have
  an account, Ubuntu Software Center will help you register one."
  
  "If you accidentally removed software that you purchased, and you want
  it back, choose File → Reinstall Previous Purchases."
  
  "First, check that View → All Software is selected."
