RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
localization german: bad translation; "bonding device" is translated to "Bündelverbindung".
A customer complained this is a bad translation, and I agree.
Can we may be stick with "bond Verbindung", or something else?  We have English words entering the German language and getting used like German words.  Trying to forcibly use a German term for everything might not lead to best results.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhel8.3GA

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run anaconda, select Deutsch
2. create a bond device, appears as "Bündel-Verbindung 1".

Also, anslaving bond-slaves then, these are called "bond0 Sklave 1", "bond0 Sklave 2".  I will open a bz for the "Sklave" by itself, but "bond0" anyway appears then for the slaves - why not use it also for the whole device name like English does?

Hi Chris, 

Thank you for reporting. The German upstream language repo can be found at: 

https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/anaconda/rhel-8/de/

https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/anaconda/master/de/

Please do you have access there? Please can you fix the reported problem? 

If you can't do that, I can fix the problem myself. But I need to know 2 things: "wrong version" + "correct version". Is that something you can provide to us? 

Thank you, Luděk

Also here I did not find the strings on in "anaconda", so here is the correction in plain:

In English, we see: "Bond connection 1"

German, wrong: "Bündel-Verbindung 1"

German, correct: "Bond-Verbindung 1"

I was thinking quite some time what the correct German should be here,
but going with the English "Bond" here seems like the best variant.
"Bündel" means kind of "stack", but it is considered out of place here,
also a customer directly commented that way.
English terms are used in many places, I think here it's also good to
use them.

I verified also Fedora34 still has the issue.

Comment 3 Ludek Janda 2021-05-06 08:20:24 UTC 
Hi Christian,

in that case I am afraid this ticket was filed against a wrong component. 

According to my internal records, the string Bond connection does not come from Anaconda but from Network Manager. 

The only apearence of the word "Bond" in anaconda is in these 2 cases: 

English: Bond %(interface_name)s (%(list_of_slaves)s) connected
German: Bond %(interface_name)s (%(list_of_slaves)s) aktiv

English: Bond
German: Bond 

Source: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/translate/anaconda/rhel-8/de/?q=Bond&sort_by=-priority%2Cposition&offset=1

You are suggesting to keep the word "Bond" in English even for German. Then it seems to be that way in Anaconda now. 

Please can I close this ticket now as Fixed in current release? Are you okay with that? 

Thank you.

Thanks for the details, reassigning to NM.
Comment 5 Christian Horn 2021-05-07 06:50:26 UTC 
I think this also comes from nm-applet..
