gksudo prompts with an english dialog instead of a german one

[rubinstein]

When I run root-terminal or synaptic or another application where I need to be
root, gksudo prompts me with an english dialog instead of a german one (in an
otherwise german environment).

Thanks for your bugreport.

The problem was that the translation template file for gksu was out of date. I
uploaded a new gksu version that includes a up-to-date translation template
(gksu.pot) file. It should be visible in the rosetta translation portal tomorrow.

Hello,

is there any progress with this bug? There is no change when I start a
root-terminal, the same happens as described earlier. It also seems that I can't
find the exact english wording when I search in launchpad.net (libgksuui1.0,
gksu, libgksu1.2).

The problem will be fixed with the next german language-pack update (this evening):

Unfortunately it is not fixed. I made an update today, but all the same. I
checked launchpad, the missing bits seem translated.
Also, when I open a normal terminal and run 'gksu gedit' it's in english.

There was a problem with the language-pack generation, I'm pretty sure it will
be fixed tonight.

Did you set (e.g. with language-selector) your default language to german? Then
all users should get german as default.

OK, new language-pack came in, gksudo asks now in german language (one button
still shows continue instead of Fortfahren).

Fixed in breezy.
