Description Kirill Kolyshkin 2004-04-19 22:33:07 UTC
Jeremy Katz asked on fedora-trans-list to look through the screenshots
available at http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/anaconda-langs/ and file
bugs.

So, on the screenshot attached you can see that absolute file name
"/root/install.log" (highlighted in red) is broken in a way so the
first slash is on one line, while "root..." is on the other. It looks
extremely bad.

Comment 2 Per Bjornsson 2004-04-20 02:13:34 UTC
I noticed the same thing in several languages; the Swedish
(sv_SE.UTF-8) one has exactly the same problem as the Russian one
referenced above
(http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/anaconda-langs/sv_SE.UTF-8/screenshot-0009.png
is Jeremy's own screenshot) and even English (en_US.UTF-8) has an
unfortunate linebreak in '/root/ \n anaconda-ks.config' - not quite as
bad but still not so easy to understand. I guess the solution is to
make the path strings unbreakable if possible?


Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2004-04-20 04:22:22 UTC
Hmmm, these are getting marked with what I think meant unbreakable

u'\uFEFF/\uFEFFroot\uFEFF/\uFEFFanaconda\uFEFF-\uFEFFks\uFEFF.\uFEFFcfg'

Owen -- has anything changed here in pango?
