thank you for our bug report, where did you get this version, that's not the official intrepid version. do you have the corresponding language pack installed? ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: New = Incomplete -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It is the intrepid-backports version (http://packages.ubuntu.com /intrepid-backports/gimp), 2.6.1-1ubuntu3 (the official intrepid version) has this issue too. I've the language back installed, though it wouldn't affect this since .desktop translation get populated at build time only. -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 321337] Re: Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language
I downloaded the source package, the 03_gimp.desktop.in.in.patch changes the 'Name' entry of the desktop file to GIMP Image Editor, but the upstream translation catalogs don't have that string, only in launchpad translations. I'm not sure how this should be handled, but I think if we are going to change upstream sources this way, then we should be using launchpad translations at build time too, not just languages packs. It is not acceptable in many languages, especially those who use a totally different writing system like Arabic, to have English menu entries, it also gives a false impression that GIMP isn't translated, which affects the overall user experience. -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 321337] Re: Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language
the entry should be translated on launchpad so the language packs have the translations, that's not a bug, there is no need to have the translations in the binary package since the software translations are moved to the language pack and this one needs to be installed to get the translations ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 321337] Re: Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language
Sorry, but you don't seem to get it. '.desktop' files are a special case, they don't pick translations from '.mo' files, the 'gimp.desktop' file is generated from 'gimp.desktop.in' by 'intltool-merge' picking the translations from the PO files in the source tree. Since Ubuntu modified the English string in the PO file, if the PO files modified in launchpad isn't there, then it'll not pick the translation and we will end with English only '.desktop' file and subsequently unlocalised menu entry. So either don't change the already translated upstream file, or fix the localisation of the changed one. ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 321337] Re: Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language
the ubuntu libraries have been changed to use gettext to get desktop translations so language packs are used, users would have noticed if menu items were not translatable the gimp entry is correctly translatable, you should contact the translation team for your locale ** Changed in: gimp (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- Name field in 'gimp.desktop' is not translated to any language https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
