QA question: is the updatedatabase really needed for the description? I thought the description in systempreference was now deprecated in favor of the .pref (translatable) file
(In reply to comment #5) > is the updatedatabase really needed for the description? I wasn't sure myself, but I wanted to be thorough.
I'm going to say good to Owen's thoroughness on this. Best to clean up all these little details as soon as we can, rather than assuming they won't be a problem, and being confused later on. Simple change, marking Passed QA
Ian, I feel/fear you've misunderstood my question: the explanation column in systempreference is now useless. What we use is the description in i18n_l10n.pref (fix that is also included) So, unless i'm mistaking somewhere, the updatedatabase is strictly useless, and we should have a bug entry for removing the explanation field.
The column is still needed for local use system preferences, but it could be emptied for normal system preferences.
OK, katrin you confirm it's useless in this case. i'll push the patch without the updatedatabase stuff then, and open a bug to empty descriptions of sysprefs that are not local (question: how can we identify them ?)
Patch pushed, please test (removed the updatedatabase stuff, that is useless
This will be included in the upcoming 3.6.5 release.
