To the average person, 'warning' means they need to be cautious and check something, but this message doesn't give any indication of how to do that.
Saying "this isn't a bug" is the same as saying one has no understanding of how inexperienced users in the real world interpret warning messages. If this message is just casual information for those in the know, it should be labelled in some non-threatening non-worrying way, e.g. 'Information'. It IS a bug. It's a usability bug. Sorry if I come over a bit too passionate about this, but I get to see non-geek users of Ubuntu, and this kind of thing scares the BeJeez out of some of them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763766 Title: WARNING: Failed to read mirror file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/763766/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
