Created attachment 1870004 [details] Untranslated string Description of problem: The "Installing software" and other strings that are displayed next to the spinner during Fedora installation are always displayed as untranslated (English) on non-English locale although they are fully translated in the Anaconda po file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-36.16.2-4.fc36.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time (on Rawhide and F36). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora Rawhide or Fedora 36 with non-English locale that has these strings fully translated. 2. See the text next to the spinner. Actual results: "Installing software" and other strings that are displayed next to the spinner during Fedora installation are always in English. Expected results: "Installing software" and other strings that are displayed next to the spinner during Fedora installation are in correct language.
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 36-final by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because: The proposition was required by @jkonecny. This will enable them to translate some untranslated strings in Anaconda.
This might even be a blocker :) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_36_Final_Release_Criteria#Installer_translations
Discussed during the 2022-04-04 blocker review meeting: [1] The decision to classify this bug as an AcceptedFreezeException was made: "It is a noticeable issue that cannot be fixed with an update."

It looks like Anaconda DBus modules were always producing wrong translations in the live environment due to https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/4026. This fix could have some side effects, so we will apply it only to Rawhide and use a workaround in Fedora 36. See: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/4024
Discussed in ticket: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/698 The decision to classify this bug as an AcceptedBlocker was made: This is violation of Final release criterion "The installer must correctly display all sufficiently complete translations available for use."
