** Description changed:

  In Ubuntu 12.04 the Psensor shows the celsius degree badly. Both in the main 
window and in the indicator. For example if the temperature is 55 celsius 
degree it should be showed like this: 55°C not like this: 55 C, because it is 
very ugly.
  I use Psensor 0.6.2.16
+ 
+ SRU information:
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ The degree Celcius symbol is missing.
+ Even if it is a real bug, it does not block any psensor feature usage, it is 
only cosmetic.
+ It will be nice to have it fixed in precise which is a LTS but should be 
handled with
+ a very very low priority. SRU team members are certainly more useful patch to 
check and
+ upload than this one.
+ 
+ The fix is trivial, it simply adds the celcius degree sign before the
+ 'C'.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Here is a screenshot showing the bug: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/psensor/+bug/1021900/+attachment/3225364/+files/LP1021900_KO.png
+ The missing degree sign is emphasized in the red circles
+ 
+ To reproduce:
+  - 1 - ubuntu precise must be installed in a real computer and not in a 
virtual machine.
+        VM does not allow to retrieve thermal sensors of the computer. The 
hardware
+        must have at least one thermal sensor supported by lmsensor.
+  - 2 - install psensor
+  - 3 - starts the sensor detection script and follow its instruction: sudo 
sensors-detect
+  - 4 - reboot the computer to ensure that the needed kernel module are loaded
+  - 5 - starts 'psensor', wait a couple of seconds until the sensors measures 
are retrieved
+  - 6 - check that all celcius units displayed in the main window have the 
degree sign
+  - 7 - open the psensor application indicator and checks the degree sign
+ 
+ You can see the correct display in this screenshot:

+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ The fix is trivial, the unit string are not dynamicaly allocated nor
+ translatable, I don't expect any regression.
+ 
+ The fix has been commited upstream in mainstream dev branch few months ago 
and nobody
+ raised a regression bug. Mainstream dev branch has been tested on both Ubuntu 
and Debian.
