SUMMARY
Hello,

In Settings --> Configure digiKam --> Views --> (Tab) Categories
it is possible to manage the categories that can be assigned to an album.

This list contains 8 predefined category-names (e.g. Nature or Friends).

These predefined names are translatable in digikam.po file, but the translated values (in my case German) are not used/displayed when I open the above mentioned dialog.

Is this by design, that I have to delete e.g "Friends" and to add "Freunde", in order to get a German category-name?
Or is it an error?

Thanks in advance for your help

Yes, you can delete and edit them. These category names are usually translated. Since the translation was not complete in the meantime, the names are saved untranslated. You can also delete the entry "Album Collections" in digikamrc in order to save it again in translation:

[Album Settings]
Album Collections = ...
