"Remote login"-string in greeter screen not translateble

[Josef Andersson]

Even though all strings for the greeter are translated in relevant file, the string "Remote login" doesn't seem to be translatable. It's not in the translation file, and shows in english. Tested in Swedish and Spanish translations, which both have the greeter and friends translated. So it seems to be a general error, and not a language-specific one.

To reproduce:
1) Observe in launchpad, or any other way you like, that the greeter are translated, for example, in Swedish and Spanish.
2) Install the languages in the language support in latest 14.10
3) Change to another language, and look login dialog at the greeter screen - it's not translated altough it should be.

I'm filing this report for 14.10 but it's highly likley that 14.04 has the same error. If a fix is done for this, please also fix 14.04.

The string has been translated in the remote-login-service domain, but I can confirm that it's still shown in English.

Workaround: The string resides in the /etc/remote-login-service.conf file, and can be edited there into the language of choice.

Hmm.. The localization seems to be completely broken.

This string is not shown in 15.04, 15.10 so I guess you can say fix released - it's gone (for newer ubuntu versions).

Not only the string is gone, but the whole package is (as from vivid), so this is indeed ready to close.
