Description Christoph Wickert 2009-07-16 20:48:25 UTC
Description of problem:
The German localization of Polkit-gnome is full of errors and bad German.

#: ../tools/polkit-gnome-authorization.c:1959
msgid ""
"Implicit authorizations are authorizations automatically given to users "
"based on certain criteria such as if they are on the local console."
msgstr ""
"Implizite Berechtigungen sind Berechtigungen, die basierend auf bestimmten "
"Kriterien automatisch an Benutzer vergeben werden, beispielsweise ob sie an "
"der lokalen Konsole sind."

This sentence is hard to understand, one doesn't know if the last part
describes a criteria or a privilege. Suggestion:
"beispielsweise abhängig davon, ob sie an der lokalen Konsole sind."


#: ../tools/polkit-gnome-authorization.c:2174
msgid "_Show authorizations from all users..."
msgstr "_Berechtigungen von allen Benutzern anzeigen …"

needs to be "Berechtigungen aller Benutzer anzeigen". Rettet den Genitiv!

#: ../tools/polkit-gnome-authorization.c:2175
msgid "_Show authorizations from all users"
msgstr "Berechtigungen von allen Benutzern anzeigen"

same as above plus missing keyboard indicator.


#: ../data/polkit-gnome.schemas.in.h:3
msgid ""
"If set to true, the authentication dialog from PolicyKit-gnome will grab the "
"keyboard, so that you will not be able to type in other programs while the "
"dialog is active. Use this if your window manager does not focus the "
"authentication dialog automatically, and you want to avoid accidentally "
"typing passwords in other programs."
msgstr ""
"Ist dies auf wahr gesetzt, zieht der Legitimationsdialog Tastatureingaben "
"auf sich, sodass es nicht möglich ist, in anderen Programmen zu tippen, "
"solange der Dialog aktiv ist. Benutzen Sie dies, wenn ihr Fenstermanager den "
"Legitimationsdialog nicht automatisch fokussiert und sie vermeiden wollen, "
"versehentlich Passwörter in andere Programme zu schreiben."

"Sie" needs to be written with a capital letter (Höflichkeitsform) here.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
polkit-gnome-0.92-3.fc12

Additional info:
This is a follow up to bug # 492720. Sorry for filing this bug here, but no one was able to tell me where the bugtracker of polkit is. It's developed and hosted ad freedesktop.org, but bugs.freedesktop.org only has the old PolicyKit and no polkit component.

Comment 1 Piotr Drąg 2009-09-09 09:25:50 UTC
http://l10n.gnome.org/module/policykit-gnome/ is working again. It's the newest polkit, and it's maintained by GNOME Translation Teams. I guess that bugs should be filled here:

http://l10n.gnome.org/module/policykit-gnome/

Or even better here:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=l10n under German [de] component.

Comment 2 Piotr Drąg 2009-09-09 09:30:39 UTC
I'm sorry, second link should be of course this: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=policykit-gnome

Comment 3 Thomas Spura 2009-09-09 12:31:44 UTC
There are 4 issues described above:

Number 1 is commented out in the actual .po file.
Number 2 is changed to the proposition and commented out.
Number 3 is changed to the proposition and commented out.
Number 4 is changed to the proposition and commented out.


To correct the first issue in the out-commented code should be not needed.



Should this bug now become CLOSED->DEFERRED?

Comment 4 Christoph Wickert 2009-09-09 13:05:50 UTC
1. commented out.
2. commented out but still not correct, now it's "_Berechtigungen aller Benutzern anzeigen …". The "n" in "Benutzern" is wrong twice.
3. fixed
4. fixed

I made another comment about 2. on in the upstream bug, so there is nothing we need to track here any longer. Closing.
