[Synaptic-devel] Language file minor issues

[Jean-Michel POURE]

Dear all,

Some remarks about the language file:

1) There are still HTML tags embedded in the language file. This may (?) cause 
bugs and should be avoided whenever possible.

Example:
<span weight=\"bold\" size=\"large\">Quit and ignore queued changes?</span>
<span weight=\"bold\" size=\"large\">Enable smart upgrade (dist-upgrade)?</
span>
<span weight=\"bold\" size=\"large\">Incorrect or incompatible locale 
settings</span>
<span size=\"xx-large\" weight=\"bold\">Synaptic version</span>
<span size=\"xx-large\" weight=\"bold\">Synaptic version</span>
<span size=\"small\">Copyright (c) 2001-2003 Connectiva S/A \n

2) Two stings are duplicates

<b>Warning:</b> This can render your package manager unusable.\n
Changes override the version selected by the package manager

<b>Warning:</b> This can render your package\n
manager unusable. Changes override the version selected by the package 
manager. 

By the way, I would prefer "this action can render your package manager 
unusable". Strings with undefined words like "this, that, it, them, they" can 
be dificult to translate into several languages (you never know if it is 
feminin, masculin etc...).

3) What is exactly the "priority" tag? There seems to be at least two values: 
"standard" and "optional". Does "Priority" mean "Order" or "Importance"?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
