[Bug 993672] Re: Ships malformed interactive upgrade hook which causes translations to be shown in the dialog

[Badcam]

(Sorry. this has also been posted in Bug #1005934 - I didn't know how to
remove it )

I can confirm this. Attached is a screenshot.

You can actually see what this box says if you drag the black window (I
had to resize it first) to another desktop.

This is what it is:

Not ethe "Run this action" icon below. Which isn't in the prior posters
screenshot.

Clicking "Run this action" brings up a terminal box with an error, and
then I get a strange cursor and can't use the mouse anymore. I had to
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The package-data-downloads-failed and package-data-downloads-failed-permanently interactive upgrade hooks shipped with update-notifier-common are malformed. In each file, the internationalized Name fields of every supported language are scrunched up in to one line. This breaks the Kubuntu upgrade hook notifier, making the window extremely large.

  [Test case]
  1. Run sudo cp /usr/share/update-notifier/package-data-downloads-failed /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/
  2. Verify that the notification which appears is malformed
  3. Upgrade to the update-notifier-common package from precise-proposed
  4. Run the command from step 1 again
  5. Verify that the notification which appears is correctly formed, and in your configured language
