Re: Searching for a string (GNOME Panel)

Unmounted volumes are displayed like "XX Gbilesystem" (ough, it's even vorse in English...), meaning that the space and first letter of "filesystem" (in Icelandic) are truncated. Probably this is a translation error, but I can't find any trace of it in my POs. Does anyone know where the translations for this variable could be hiding ? Hi Sveinn, I believe it's this one: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+pots/gnome-disk-utility/is/821/+translate Regards, David. Well, found the error (made by a young eager translator, sometimes focusing more on quantity than quality): English:%s Filesystem Current Icelandic: % skráakerfi No wonder I couldn't find the bug, it's the variable itself which was fubar. Surprisingly Places/Nautilus managed to show the correct sizes despite the error. Thanks again, Sveinn í Felli -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators

Best regards, Sveinn í Felli On a finishing note: I always use grep -R "bilensystem" /usr/share/locale* on my system if I need to find out in what package a certain string is hiding. grep will than report that it found the string in some .mo file, the name indicates to which package it belongs. I saw you already have an answer, so this is just my two cents in the spirit of 'teach a man to fish' and all that ;) Happy translating all! That's cool, didn't know you could grep .mo files, thought they were compiled into some binary porridge... Thanks both of you, Sveinn í Felli -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators
