Description Stefan Seyfried 2010-05-18 14:39:17 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

When searching for the scanning application today, I found out that this is a
pretty hard task.

In the Alt-f1 menu, I entered in the search field "scan". Results:
* Yast2 scanner module
* Simple Scan - the GNOME equivalent to skanlite
* XSane - correct, but not what I searched for ;)
* "Bilder Einlesen" - without an icon, so it was not immediately clear that
this was an application, it could have been a web browser bookmark or something
like that.

I remembered that there was a new applikation that replaked kooka, but it took
me some time to rekall that it was kalled skanlite, and that I had to type skan
into the searkhbox to find it.

I found that "Bilder einlesen" starts "/usr/bin/scangui -icon  -caption Bilder
einlesen" which is almost the same as "skanlite", but it is in english (even
though I have set my desktop to german locale) and it has no Icon. and it
appears subtly more buggy (regarding resizing of its windows etc).

Maybe a simple change to the desktop file of skanlite would help, so that it
gets found more easily when searching for the obvious phrase.

(this is also filed as https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602870)

Lubos suggested that it's an i18n issue for the german localization, but I'm not sure about that.
