Do you mean that some of the strings are the equivalent of "none to install" rather than "0 to install", or something along those lines? This relies on a feature of C's printf function (discarding excess arguments) which is not present in the natural Python equivalent. It's possible to emulate it, I'm sure, but it will take some work. I would suggest that you be very careful when using this style in strings tagged python-format: this is an explicit warning that this approach may cause application failures. -- gnome-language-selector crashed with TypeError in check_status() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/409785 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
