Comment 3 for bug 414704

Just for the record, the locale settings on the netbook where the bug can be reproduced are:

$ locale
LANG=ca_ES.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=ca_ES.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ca_ES.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Also, switching to classic mode in the same netbook and then executing

$ LANG=ca_ES.utf8 netbook-launcher -w

presents the same problem (untranslated .desktop files in netbook-launcher, but translated on the context menu which appears after pressing Alt+F1)
