[Bug 341015] Re: update-manager crashed with TypeError in _get_last_apt_get_update_text()

 

I've been given a heads up on this bug, but by reading the previous
comments, I'm not sure it's fixed. Could someone give an update on the
status?

I explained the background on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/language-selector/+bug/409785/comments/9 and added another comment on
the Python upstream bug about using str.format().

The solution here is that the packages use %-formatting with named
arguments (e.g. %(argument) ) to avoid crashes from happening while
allowing the languages which require it to discard arguments. If it's
not possible to change the code, you should use a workaround in the
translation.

If someone could also send a bug report at gettext upstream mentioning
the issues with msgfmt I described on the comment from the other bug
above, that would also be awesome.
