[Bug 1078073] Re: When using apt-get install "[Y/n] options are translated but shouldn't be

 

A French user could reproduce with apt 0.9.7.5 : see Bug #1096142

IMHO, this is a bug of apt, not a translation problem:
- either 'apt' should not make Y/n a non-translatable string
- or 'apt' should make sure that the key is corresponding to the localized string

** Also affects: apt

Bug description:
  This is a minor bug that applies to danish tranlations and posiible
  all non-english language.

  When installing softare through the terminal (apt-get install) you are
  promted if you like to install the package or not. In danish those
  options are translated as well  i.e. options are displayed as "[J/n]".

  However you have to type "y" to install and n th chancel. (what the
  user type has to be the english options)
