--- Comment #7 from Christopher Aillon <caillon at redhat.com> 2011-04-12 12:01:36 EDT ---
Anyway, I strongly feel that the real bug is that this message exists at all.

1) It is painfully obvious that the message was written by a non-native English
speaker.  I am a native speaker, and I don't think I really understand what the
message is trying to say in full.

2) I really don't think imsettings should ever be displaying an error at
startup.  It doesn't matter if it's GNOME or KDE or Xfce or what, displaying
error message for an optional feature seems just broken.  And doing it every
login is even more broken.

3) If you still strongly feel the need to tell users something, you should
offer to let the user install the modules directly from your message and open
PackageKit with relevant results.  See what we do for missing printer drivers,
missing fonts, missing codecs etc.  And then stop asking again.  I already said
no.

Reopen and assigning back to imsettings.
