Bug#784052: alsoft-conf: Labels include the & character (patch available)

[Hans Joachim Desserud]

Package: alsoft-conf
Version: 1.4.3-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When running alsoft-conf, several labels in the General tab are
shown with the & character. The affected labels are
&Update periods
&Period size
S&ource

Presumably the & character is used to signify mnemonics, but in
this case it is displayed instead.

This issue has previously been reported in Ubuntu as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsoft-conf/+bug/618060
which includes a suggested patch for this issue.
