While there is a slippery slope here -- where do you stop?  -- in the US
this is considered about the most offensive word there is (moreso, I
gather, than in the UK).

Its appearance could throw a whole class of 10 year olds into complete
disarray, and if it showed up, say, in initial testing would probably
disqualify the product entirely.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ktouch

I am using ubuntu 10.4.
ktouch version: 4:4.4.2-0ubuntu2

I was following a lecture to learn Dvorak (Training > Default Lectures .. > Dvorak (auto-generated))
Among the various English and pseudo-English words KTouch asked me to type, I encountered "cunt".
I imagine it could be a source of trouble if Ubuntu is ever used at school to teach children how to type.
