Description Marcin Garski 2007-06-05 20:48:21 UTC
Version:           0.9.2-beta3 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

In digikam/utilities/hotplug/digikam-download.desktop.in, digikam/utilities/hotplug/digikam-gphoto2-camera.desktop.in and digikam/utilities/hotplug/digikam-mount-and-download.desktop.in you can find "Télécharger" string in French translation, I'm not a French guy but IMHO proper string is "Télécharger".

I'll attach a patch that fix this issue. What's strange for me is that in changelog there is entry which for me is about the same bug, so it should be fixed.

I have committed the patch which was used in Ubuntu to fix french translation.

Not sure why it does not work on you system. Which distro do you use?
Can you check with nanguage/encoding you use?

  env | grep LANG
Comment 3 Marcin Garski 2007-06-05 21:39:24 UTC
My distro is Fedora Core 6 with full UTF-8 support (LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8).
Can you provide me link to Ubuntu patch?

This desktops files are UTF-8 encoded, but something went wrong and you have "é" instead "é" (as I said this was probably happen during file recoding or on patch apply) and my patch fix this.

BTW this is not related to my distro because "é" is already in digikam sources, look at: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/extragear/kde3/graphics/digikam/utilities/hotplug/digikam-download.desktop.in?view=markup
Comment 4 Marcin Garski 2007-06-05 21:54:30 UTC
I've found Ubuntu's patches:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/digikam/digikam_0.9.1-1ubuntu4.diff.gz
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/digikam/digikam_0.9.2~beta2-1ubuntu2.diff.gz

If you look at the 11-add-service-menu-translations.diff.diff from both sources you will notice that in 0.9.1 there is "Télécharger" but in 0.9.2 this has changed to little monster ;) "Télécharger".
Comment 5 Luka Renko 2007-06-05 21:55:29 UTC
Patch was taken from this debdiff:

Comment 6 Marcin Garski 2007-06-07 22:11:03 UTC

desktop.in files are not i18n. It's a duplicate of #141085.

kde script must be fixed for that.
