E.g. pkg mythes-de-ch pkg description field in the text area is displayed as erman Thesaurus for OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice (Swiss Version) Canonical provides critical updates for mythes-de-ch until Saturday 13 Sep 2014. Obviously the 'G' is missing in 'erman'. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start muon package manager 2. click on any package 3. read first word in description in the white text area of details tab Actual Results: 1st char of the 1st word of the (short) description in the text field is missing Expected Results: Either * display the complete word or * remove the first two lines (short description + empty line) as the same text is written in bold above the text field
Created attachment 78005 [details] 1st char of description field not displayed This is muon 1.9.95-0ubuntu1 on Kubuntu raring
(In reply to comment #1) Bugs exits in 1.9.97-0ubuntu2 kubuntu/raring, which is AFAIU the correct/fix rc tarball
What about libqapt? What version is it at?

Created attachment 84675 [details] short description (without first char) needlessly shows agian in the textfield I See the problem still/again with muon 2.1.2 in a fresh install of Kubuntu Trusty Tahr with a just created user. See upper left of the text field: the 'r' or 'real' is missing. or alternatively only the 1st char is ignored instead of the complete short describtion (needless her as it's displayed above the text field in bold again I prefer the second alternative as the real bug ;-)
To reproduce: sudo apt-get -o=Acquire::Languages=none update muon # ==> bug: short description (- 1st char) is shows in text field togehtr with long describtion fixed by sudo apt-get update muon # ==> fixed: short description is not shown in the text field. I can understand if the bug report is now 'won't fix' but it's can not hurt to harden muon and get rid of the assumption that translation files are up to date, that leads to this strange behaviour of muon.
Git commit 0b0c3f8d1e6314a97264072c7907ddc02dc94649 by Carlo Vanini. Committed on 04/07/2016 at 09:18. Pushed by vanini into branch 'master'. Remove leading space in description only if present. When descriptions are loaded from translation files they start with a leading whitespace. But when translations are missing that space is not present. Therefore, remove the first character only if it actully is a space. REVIEW: 128337 Testing Done: Tested with Muon Before patching: * sudo apt-get -o=Acquire::Languages=none update * run Muon and notice the missing character After patching: * run Muon, the character is there * sudo apt-get update # get back translations * run Muon, correct description, no leading whitespace M +3 -1 src/package.cpp http://commits.kde.org/libqapt/0b0c3f8d1e6314a97264072c7907ddc02dc94649
