Description Reinout van Schouwen 2003-01-03 17:06:36 UTC 
#: src/terminal-profile.c:2385                                            
     #, c-format                                                          
          msgid "There was an error forgetting profile dir %s. (%s)\n"

Is this meant to read 'for getting'?

If the verb 'forgetting' is used intentionally then I suggest using clearer
wording in a next release.
Comment 1 Mariano Suárez-Alvarez 2003-07-23 06:03:22 UTC 
This could simply be changed into "There was an error while removing
the GConf directory %s", as that is the problem that causes this message.
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2003-07-23 16:57:49 UTC 
I'd say "configuration directory" or something instead of 
"gconf directory", otherwise sounds good.

It's probably sort of overkill to have error messages for all the 
gconf stuff, but not worth removing all the error handling since
I wrote it already I guess. ;-)
Comment 3 Mariano Suárez-Alvarez 2003-07-29 23:21:16 UTC 
done.
