Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus-sendto

When I run Feisty with Finnish locale and try using nautilus-sendto for
sending a file or folder I am offered only one choice for archive
format. This choice is quite oddly ´.zip .tar.gz .tar.bz2´. This option
will allways use .zip. If I try typing ´example.tar.gz' in the name
field it creates and sends a zipped tar ball named example.tar.gz.zip.

When I use an English locale this problem does not occur. I was able to
fix the bug by editing line 356 of /usr/share/nautilus-sendto/glade
/nautilus-sendto.glade. I simply changed the value of the property
translatable from yes to no. I see absolutely no problem in doing this
because one cannot translate file postfixes, can one.
