Help -> About gives application name of 'virt-manager.py' rather than Virtual Machine Manager

[Mike MacCana]

Binary package hint: virt-manager

Clicking Help -> About gives application name of 'virt-manager.py' rather than Virtual Machine Manager, as used in its menu entry and documentation.

This error is marked 'wishlist'. Please correct.

A fix is provided below. The problem comes about due GtkAboutDialog "name" property being deprecated - see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=496689

The fix is to modify line 9 of /usr/share/virt-manager/vmm-about.glade from the deprecated:
   <property name="name" translatable="yes">Virtual Machine Manager</property>
to:
   <property name="program-name" translatable="yes">Virtual Machine Manager</property>

Please remove the incorrect wishlist tag and apply the fix above.

I'm not sure what is "incorrect" about the bug being marked wishlist?

At any rate, I've fixed this locally, it'll be in the next upload.

[Mike MacCana (lovekudu)]

Thanks.

Wishlist, as I understand it, means an improvement that's not a bug fix -
this was clearly a fix.
