Translations for the "Device for boot loader installation" message are not loaded

[Victor Vargas]

Latest image of Ubuntu Lucid Beta 2, when you are almost finishing installation under advanced options (boot loader changes), the string "Device for boot loader installation" is not translated and I can't find it in his template.

In Spanish would say: "Dispositivo donde instalar el cargador de arranque".

This string is not translated yet under latest iso of Lucid Lynx.

Is this still an issue?

I have installed Ubuntu Maverick Alpha #2 a few weeks ago and this issue is still valid, let me check if with round #3 or maverick is still occuring, Thanks.

Confirming as per attached screenshot.

this string is still not translated under latest release of Ubuntu Maverick RC

I hope this string could be translatble soon to meet 10.10 release.

As told in the Bug #703805, this bug is still present in the release of Ubuntu 10.10, even if this strings are marked as translatable (and translated, at least for the French) in the templates of grub-installer and yaboot-installer.
Can someone test it on Natty or on the current sources?

I can confirm this bug is still happening with Ubuntu 11.04 final candidate (tested with French).

This appears to be a bug in the package build scripts for ubiquity. The grub source has the translated strings, but grub-installer/bootdev in d-i/templates is untranslated.

[Evan (ev)]

I stand corrected. It's in grub-installer.

[Evan (ev)]

Right, I failed to recognize that debconf leaves strings untranslated if either the description or extended_description lack a translation. This will be fixed with a standard translation update.
