This looks like both a bug in the code, and a bug in the Portuguese
localization.

It's a bug in the localization, as you say, because the translator
closed the <big> element incorrectly.

It's a bug in the code, because they shouldn't have had to. Making every
translator include those exact characters is making them do extra work
and risk mistakes like this one. The code should take the localized
string and *then* put the <b><big>...</big></b> around it. That should
be fairly easy to fix.

Title:
  Window header mistype on selecting best server (portuguese system
  language, at least)

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I believe there is a mistype preventing text from being displayed as
  the window's header.  The "<big>" tag was closed incorrectly and so
  displayed as ordinary text.

  I do not know if this happens with any other version of Ubuntu except
  for the Portuguese version.
