SRU Request:

Impact: The lightdm-gtk-greeter's password string isn't translated. This
has been fixed in the lightdm-gtk-greeter upstream source tree. lightdm-
gtk-greeter has been removed from Precise, so the issue doesn't apply to
Precise.

Fix: A minimal patch was applied to use the pam stack's password string.
See merge request.

Regression potential: minimal, worst case the password string won't
display properly.


** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Precise)

Title:
  lightdm-gtk-greeter in Xubuntu, has one untranslated item

Bug description:
  The greeter of LightDM in Xubuntu Oneiric, is almost completely
  translated. When you install the packages that are currently still in
  Proposed, anyway. But not the item "Password:".

  This happens even in languages for which LightDM has been fully
  translated (100 %). In my case: Dutch. So the item "Password:" is
  somehow untranslatable now.

  At the request of Sebastien Bacher, I've forked this bug from this
  previous bug report:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/868613

  I should add that I'm using the LightDM packages from Proposed, which
  fix most of the translation issues, but not this final one.

  According to Robert Ancell in the previous bug report, lightdm-gtk-
  greeter should pull it's translation of the item "Password:" from PAM:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/868613/comments/12

  But it doesn't do so: PAM has been fully translated into Dutch as
  well, but still no translation for the item "Password:" in lightdm-
  gtk-greeter.
