artnaykelemengabor: you assigned bug 1019172 for us (thanks for that)11:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1019172 in Ubuntu Translations "Clumsy Finnish localization of post-install failure message" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101917211:16
artnaykelemengabor: it seems like the actual variable (%s, which has a value "post-installation) isn't translatable11:17
artnayI wonder what else values it might have. quite problematic to translate such sentences11:17
kelemengaborno idea, sorry :(11:20
artnaykelemengabor: ok, thanks anyway. it's now bug 103804211:42
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1038042 in dpkg (Ubuntu) "The values for variable in string "installed %s script" aren't translatable" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/103804211:42
TLEartnay: you might learn something dy downloading the source package and look for the strings in the source files (e.g with grep), but really the devs should comment on these sort of things11:52
artnayTLE: I did check their git - see http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=blob;f=src/script.c;h=c03441b390cee773cfd2dbf2bdf45bc9d99f5fe0;hb=HEAD#l18012:02
artnayafaik that only sets the actual string translatable, not the variable (which probably comes from http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=blob;f=src/script.c;h=c03441b390cee773cfd2dbf2bdf45bc9d99f5fe0;hb=HEAD#l231 )12:03
TLEartnay: ahh yeah, it would appear so12:47
