The Font Library and Connectors screens tell the user to run npm install when build files are missing. That was correct when 61492 added a postinstall hook that built the assets; 62321 removed it and the messages were never updated. The two strings are also inconsistent — one says "Gutenberg build files", the other "build files".

Changes

  • npm installnpm run build in both messages.
  • Dropped the "Gutenberg" reference so both strings read consistently.
  • Moved the command into a sprintf() placeholder with a translators comment, per src/index.php.
