The patch that deletes the offending translation file: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/pull/170/commits/01b9616a7472a08434ead9e046e9f9b025

The patch that deletes the offending translation file: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/pull/170/commits/01b9616a7472a08434ead9e046e9f9b02514ab8a https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/pull/1... One of the commits that added the offensive language: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/commit/29069dbbd345b76ca75d0977952cd4716d414f85 https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/commit... It seems like the vandal made a test edit three weeks ago, perhaps to see if anyone was paying attention: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/commit/c75736c198b465fa21c63b33dd058d8fd1f4980a https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-provision/commit.... This is followed up with two, more extensive edits made a few days ago. I kinda wish they’d just reverted the commits rather than nuking the entire translation. Perhaps a Ukrainian speaker could help them get the translation back into a good shape?

Offline warning: "Your pants aren't off yet" I can't vouch for the rest of them and a couple seemed to be veering into anti-Semitic territory, but that one got a neckbeardy chuckle out of me.

  Not saying I condone it, but seeing how lifeless and sterile (no pun intended...!) most software has become, and how quick people have gotten to take offense at everything, I almost wish "spicy" stuff like this would show up more often.

    Why? Software can be fun without being... this. Easter eggs and humor, that's good stuff but a distribution full of slurs like some 13yo edgelord wrote it? I just don't see the appeal. There's already a bunch of random distros which are basically just themed (see https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/ https://hannahmontana.sourceforge.net/ or https://biebian.sourceforge.net/ https://biebian.sourceforge.net/) and joke distros like Suicide Linux or AmogOS

      > Easter eggs and humor I prefer humour. I increasingly find much 'humor' rather lifeless due to a misplaced desire not to cause anybody any offence whatsoever.

        When people feel frustrated because they can no longer laugh at some communities without people calling them out, they should take a moment to pause and reflect. There is always room for self-deprecating humor.

    I get where you’re coming from. Everything is maximal brand safety all the time, that a bit of vandalism can provide respite.

  i assume they can prevent who ever added this nonsense from ever "contributing" again, at least under the same name.

  'eldak' is a (rude) slang word for dick—this is the plural (i.e. dicks). Otherwise, Google's got the translation correct here.
