Public bug reported:

[Impact]

This upload combines a regular translation update of the 16.04 desktop
guide with changes of 30+ translatable strings.

Normally we don't do SRUs of translatable strings in ubuntu-docs, but
there was a late name change of the new software management application
from just "Software" to "Ubuntu Software", which was not reflected in
the desktop guide at release time. The relative importance of Ubuntu
Software, and its mentioning in the desktop guide in several places,
justifies this exception.

We have taken this 'opportunity' to SRU a few other bug fixes; please
see the changelog.

translators/2016-May/007174.html

and reminded:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-
translators/2016-June/007178.html

[Test Case]

As an example, this page:

https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/addremove-install.html

refers to "Software" only. With the update it's changed to "Ubuntu
Software".

[Regression Potential]

For some languages, some strings, which were translated at release time,
may be untranslated after this update. That's unfortunate, but these
changes of original strings carry greater weight. It's also possible to
improve this through translation updates later on.

Otherwise the regression risk is low. This is only documentation, which
does not affect other parts of the system.
