Bug Description

On my bq Aquaris I've found following bug:

When you go to the "System Settings" → "Updates" it shows "Checking for updates…" if the language is EN (UK).

In German it only shows "Aktualisierun…". The rest of the string is missing, which is translated correctly (https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu-system-settings/trunk/+pots/ubuntu-system-settings/de/368/+translate)
 as "Aktualisierungen werden gesucht …".

My first thought was that the field was to short, but "Checking for updates…" is longer than "Aktualisierun…"

I'm running Ubuntu 14.10 (r16) on krillin.

Trivial fix, it might be worth including in rtm as well?

  * system-update: use the correct right-anchoring so the checking-for-
    updates label is not cut, in some locales (LP: #1421967)

  [ Iain Lane ]
  * Drop old example images from debian/copyright - they aren't shipped
    any more

  [ Rodney Dawes ]
  * Handle the credentialsDeleted signal appropriately. (LP: #1413655)
