Description Felipe Borges 2017-07-13 09:49:01 UTC 
Instead we could show a "Oops, something went wrong" screen and link to GNOME Logs.

app, window: Introduce troubleshoot view

Sometimes we are not able to launch the application due to issues
down the stack that we cannot ignore in Boxes.

This patch introduces an error message when Boxes is not able to
start which allows launching GNOME Logs.

<property name="label" translatable="yes">Consult %s for details.</property>

What’s under %s?
Comment 4 Piotr Drąg 2017-07-13 14:35:54 UTC 
Oh, I see the screenshot now. “Logs” needs to be translatable (preferably without markup in the string) and “Consult %s for details.” could use a translator comment.
