Description of problem: incomplete german translation of /usr/bin/free free-output of Fedora 19/20 beta: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 16350368 5982688 10367680 16932 1101152 2163116 -/+ buffers/cache: 2718420 13631948 Swap: 1047548 0 1047548 The output strings of /usr/bin/free are not fully translated to german strings. total -> Gesamt used -> Belegt free -> Frei shared -> Gemeinsam buffers -> Puffer cached -> Cache (I'm not sure what translation is better "Cache" or "im Cache") Mem -> Speicher -/+ buffers/cache -> -/+ Puffer/Cache Swap -> Auslagerung This translated strings have I copied from Ubuntu, where the free-command is translated. But in the Ubuntu-version of free there are another problems: 1) The formatting is not correct. Maybe there is no algorithm to calculate the needed spaces but there are fixed spaces? 2) Maybe some words are too long? If this is the case, so for the german word "Auslagerung" there could be "Swap" too. This is ok for german too. Or the first "columns" must be wider. free-output of Ubuntu 13.10: Gesamt Belegt Frei Gemeinsam Puffer Cache Speicher: 16350368 5982688 10367680 16932 1101152 2163116 -/+ Puffer/Cache: 2718420 13631948 Auslagerungsdatei: 1047548 0 1047548 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 19, Fedora 20 Beta How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. switch to german language 2. /usr/bin/free Actual results: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 16350368 5982688 10367680 16932 1101152 2163116 -/+ buffers/cache: 2718420 13631948 Swap: 1047548 0 1047548 Expected results: Gesamt Belegt Frei Gemeinsam Puffer Cache Speicher: 16350368 5982688 10367680 16932 1101152 2163116 -/+ Puffer/Cache: 2718420 13631948 Auslagerung: 1047548 0 1047548 Additional info:
The /usr/bin/free is part of the procps-ng package. For future reference, you can use rpm -qf your_file to find out what package it belongs to (if any). Also "1. switch to german language" is an extremely vague step description. Moving to procps-ng.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
