translations in hardy broken e.g. "Delete partition"

[Arnd]

Binary package hint: partman-partitioning

While testing the daily iso of Ubuntu LTS 8.04.4 amd64 installer image, I noticed that some translations are missing, e.g. "Delete partition" see screenshot.

I downloaded the source with:
bzr branch lp:ubuntu/hardy/partman-partitioning

But I did not find the term "Delete partition" in the source. Am I looking at the correct place?

Best regards,
Arnd

Hi Arnd,

AFAIK, translations for the installer are kept in ubiquity(GUI) and debian-installer(CLI, backend).

In Lucid and Karmic a lot of strings are in Ubiquity but for Hardy I imagine the GUI strings are shared with debian-installer.

https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/debian-installer/+pots/debian-installer/de/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=delete+partition

This should be a bug in Ubiquity not reading the translations from debian-installer.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

ubiquity's translations are updated manually from debian-installer.

Unfortunately we have no more point releases of hardy planned at this point, so I don't think there's a lot of point in updating ubiquity to fix this at this point; the problem should be fixed in later releases. If you disagree and have a good reason why it would be useful to update ubiquity in hardy anyway (e.g. you have a specific application where you would be respinning CD images), then please reopen this bug.
