[Bug 1125514] Re: Wording fix for "Install software to open files?" window

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

c. Okay, maybe just silently failing is a little harsh. :-) Something
like "Ubuntu can’t search for applications to open {filename}, because
the file type is not recognized.”, with secondary text “File type: {file
type}”.

I could edit the strings in core.py myself, but I'd need to know the answers to two questions:
1. How would I include the name of the file in a string?
2. How would I include the OS name, e.g. "Ubuntu", in the string?

For example, "Sorry, %s couldn\u2019t find any applications to open
\u201c%s\u201d." % something1, something2

Title:
  Wording fix for "Install software to open files?" window

Status in “sessioninstaller” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am using 12.04.

  When opening an unknown file type, Nautilus will attempt to find and
  install the needed software.

  Currently, the window text is, "nautilus requires to install software
  to open files of the following file type: "

  I propose that we change the wording to

  (1) Nautilus needs to install additional software to open this type of file:
  (2) Nautilus requires installing additional software to open these files: 
  (3)  Nautilus requires installing additional software to open files of the following type:  

  or something similar.

  I have attached a screenshot
