[Bug 560114] Re: Truncated text in Ubiquity after selecting Hebrew

[Shlomil]

Hi Dovix,

I can confirm that this bug seem to have been solved in Oneiric Beta1 .
Probably the move to Gnome3 included some fix for it.

Since we have 2 confirmations that this bug doesn't appear on 11.10Beta1 we should probably close it.
I just wonder who/what fixed it.

Offtopic:
The sentence in your screenshot starts with LTR letter and that's why the direction of the label is assumed to be LTR which explain the left aligning. Moreover, the translated label text contains both Hebrew and English words which contributed to the mess. This is a translation issue (and unrelated to the current bug). I already reported it to Yaron.S and he added RLE chars where needed in that string. It will probably be fixed in next release.

Title:
  Truncated text in Ubiquity after selecting Hebrew

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  In Ubiquity (GTK), after selecting Hebrew (or any other Right To Left
  language) the entire GUI will be flipped and the text displayed on the
  first screen is truncated. It looks like the language selector
  overlaps the welcome text.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Reboot from the Ubuntu Desktop live CD.
  2. In the first screen select Hebrew - the screen will be flipped and truncated text will be displayed.
  OR
  2. Select "Try Ubuntu.."
  3. After Desktop is loaded click the "Install Ubuntu" icon - ubiquity will start.
  4. In Ubiquity's first screen select "Hebrew" - the screen will flip and text will 

  Please note that I think this bug might be related to LP bug #557164
  (the fix might be the same) but I think my case is more related to the
  flipping of the entire GUI (which doesn't occur in Spanish).
