Ubuntu 23.10 ISO image was urgently withdrawn due to improper translation.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens, South China Daniel Wu, Alejandro86 and soft media users 1520111 for their clue delivery! CTOnews.com October 13 news, Canonical today released the Ubuntu 23.10 ISO image, but received feedback from users that there was some hate speech in the system, so the ISO image was urgently withdrawn and recompiled.

Canonical tweeted on the X platform, saying that due to the introduction of crowdsourced user translations from third-party tools in Ubuntu 23.10, some hate speech has been found and the image has been withdrawn and the ISO image is being recompiled.

The supplementary contents of CTOnews.com translation Ubuntu Discourse are as follows:

Shortly after the release, we found hate speech from malicious contributors in a specific set of translations of UI, the Ubuntu desktop installer, and took immediate action.

Once we replace the problematic translation, we will re-release the ISO download link.

It is worth noting that these translations do not belong to Ubuntu Archive, and we believe that this event only contains translations provided through the third-party translation tools we use for some applications.

The affected images that have been deleted include Ubuntu Desktop 23.10, Ubuntu Budgie 23.10, and Ubuntu Desktop daily mirrors.
