label escaping warnings

Hello Sebastien, or anyone else affected,

Accepted network-manager-applet into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/1.8.10-2ubuntu3 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I have no interest in this issue, but I have great interest in another fix within 1.8.10-2ubuntu3 bionic-proposed release, so I have verified this issue has been fixed.

Reproduction involved launching nm-applet, attempting to connect to an AP with & in the name and seeing the following get written to stdout:

> (nm-applet:2164): Gtk-WARNING **: 02:38:16.256: Failed to set text 'REDACTED&' from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 1: Entity did not end with a semicolon; most likely you used an ampersand character without intending to start an entity - escape ampersand as &

Then bionic-proposed network-manager-gnome was installed, and the steps repeated. Now no error message gets printed.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for network-manager-applet has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This bug was fixed in the package network-manager-applet - 1.8.10-2ubuntu3
