Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu

The last sentence on the "Getting Help with Ubuntu" slide is a comma splice.

"The installation will finish soon, we hope that you enjoy using Ubuntu!"

These two independent clauses should either be joined by a semicolon ("The installation will finish soon; we hope that you enjoy using Ubuntu!") or split into two complete sentences ("The installation will finish soon.  We hope that you enjoy using Ubuntu!").
