[Bug 999071] Re: Update gfxboot-theme-ubuntu translations to shorten menu strings

[Colin Watson]

I'm updating translations from Launchpad as available.  Please do not
reopen this bug just because some particular language still has overly-
long strings, though, as I *cannot fix these*; all I can do is update
the translations to whatever's current in Launchpad.  If you want
further improvements, please contact translators directly to update
their strings; only once that's been done does it make any sense to
reopen this bug (and even then there are probably better workflows than
playing close/reopen games).

Bug description:
  Hey,

  the strings are often , in over 30 languages curently, too long for
  the menu, so users can see it at that low boot resolution.

  The strings should be shorter, if not users CAN'T read the boot
  options from the liveusb or livecd.

  I reported that at the Ubuntu Translator Mailinglist, but it was too
  late for Ubuntu 12.04

  You can see the new, not yet used, translations here:
