[Bug 1639743] Re: `&` in french translaction "Logiciels & mises à jour" should be escaped as `&`

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

The original string is "Software & Updates", so if you are right, a lot
of users (not only French) ought to run into the issue and there would
be a need to either change the original string or make whatever uses the
string when upgrading Ubuntu via update-manager capable of dealing with
an unescaped '&' character.

What makes you think that the single '&' character is the culprit? What
does the error alert say?
