Wrong (german) translation for "cannot set niceness"

[Daniel Hahler]

Binary package hint: coreutils

The current translation of "cannot set niceness" in Hardy is wrong ("das Datum kann nicht gesetzt werden").

I've tried to suggest the packaged translation ("kann Priorität nicht setzen"), but that has not been accepted by launchpad, probably because it's already the packaged one.
Submitting a new suggestion for "cannot get niceness" worked, because I've slightly changed the packaged version (to the better as far as I can see).

Please accept the new suggestion and especially fix the wrong translation of "cannot set niceness". Thank you.

Is this also a bug in launchpad's translation application? (suggestion not accepted, if it's the same as the packaged version, but not the current translation)

You can find both translations (currently) on https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/coreutils/+pots/coreutils/de/+translate?start=630 (source is src/nice.c:189 for the first one).

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04?

[Daniel Hahler (blueyed)]

Yes, it's still the case, even in Jaunty:

$ LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 nice -n -19 echo
nice: das Datum kann nicht gesetzt werden: Permission denied
