Well, my point is that '{licence}' - as it is inside braces, is the name
of a text string used to carry either "open source" or "proprietary"
depending on the conditions met, while 'tested' is a text that can be
translated. But things like this may not be obvious to the translator if
he/she don't recognize python syntax, leaving room for errors like this.
So there should be a note to translators about this. But even better
would be to change the source code to something like this:

SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py, line1276

   base_string = "{base_description} ({licence}, " + _("tested)")

This way the translator would only have to translate "tested)"

But what i really don't get is line 1278

   base_string = _("{base_description} ({licence})")

There is nothing that may be translated on that line so it should really
be:

   base_string = "{base_description} ({licence})"

Title:
  Additional drivers tab crashes if locale is sv and recommended driver
  available

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  New
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Additional drivers tab crashes on swedish locale if there are
  "recommended" drivers available. This is because the keyword/property
  "licence" mistakenly has been translated to "license" (note the "s").
  See bug #1268134 for further info

  This error has already been corrected in the translation on launchpad,
  but when can we expect it to be pushed out?
