GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 795278
Spell GnuTLS properly in the about dialog
Last modified: 2018-05-21 18:40:38 UTC
This is super trivial, but I'm going to report it anyway. In its About dialog, GNOME Terminal says: "Using VTE version 0.50.2 +GNUTLS" Should be: "Using VTE version 0.50.2 +GnuTLS"
Created attachment 370968 [details] [review] Fix Thanks for the report! The attached patch fixes it at a couple of more places too. (string change -> intended for master only, no 0-52 backport)
I've been copying how "systemctl --version" lists the features (+FOO -BAR), and that one uses "+GNUTLS" too. (Not a strong opinion either way, but usually GNU is in all capitals...)
> usually GNU is in all capitals Usually :) I've quickly checked the homepage and Wikipedia article of this particular project, and they seem to consistently spell as "GnuTLS". I'm not against insisting on all uppercase (like systemctl does) in the version report, however, I'd still submit the remaining bits of the patch then (although they're hardly user visible).
Another "solution" could be to drop the feature flags from the About dialog (it's probably too technical and not user friendly), and keep it for "gnome-terminal --version" only.

Even better, it's pretty weird to have such technical details in the About dialog.
I have committed the patch except for the change to get_features(), and picked to 0-52 except for the string change.
