Public bug reported:
(I already reported this in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1575918 but it
seems like it was the wrong package.)
The German translation labels for Minimize and Maximize were changed in
Ubuntu 16.04:
old: Minimieren / Maximieren
new: Verkleinern / Vergrößern
In my opinion, this is wrong (vergrößern = expand, not maximize).
However, the change is especially bad because it makes minimize and
maximize via keyboard shortcuts more difficult: Before, I was able to
open the menu with Alt + Space, followed by "m" for minimize and "x" for
maximize. Now, the hotkey for "Verkleinern" was changed to "k", and for
"Vergrössern" there are now multiple keystrokes necessary because the
hotkey "g" is used twice in the same menu.
My suggestion is to change the translation back to "_Minimieren" and
"Ma_ximieren".
