Running 1.6.12, on OS X 10.7.4 and Chrome 22.
-----------
Steps to repro:
1. Go to "/dashboard/"
2. Edit your columns and check "My comments" if that's not active already.
3. Inspect the markup of on of the icon
-----------
Expected: clean markup
Actual: there are some nasty <django.utils.functional.__proxy__ object at 0x1a31c50> in the title and alt attributes (see attached screenshot)
-----------
Probable cause: string interpolation in django
py 2.6.7 >>> print u'%s' % _("foo")
foo
py 2.6.7 >>> print '%s' % _("foo")
<django.utils.functional.__proxy__ object at 0x1a31c50>
From the Django doc (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/i18n/internationalization/#lazy-translation):
# This is fine: putting a unicode proxy into a unicode string.
u"Hello %s" % ugettext_lazy("people")
# This will not work, since you cannot insert a unicode object
# into a bytestring (nor can you insert our unicode proxy there)
"Hello %s" % ugettext_lazy("people")
Cheers,
Arnaud.
