Created attachment 116714 [details] screenshot of the module Hi all, I notice a localization problem in the "Mouse" module of the Systemsettings, as you can see in my screenshot. This occours if X11 driver is "libinput", with "evdev" (on my laptop) the module itself is quite different and fully localized. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Systemsettings -> Hardware -> Input devices -> Mouse 2. If your X11 driver is "libinput" the situation should be the same as in my screenshot. EXPECTED RESULT All the messages should be displayed in my locale. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52.0 Qt Version: 5.11.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Switching to another locale doesn't solve this problem. "kcmmouse.po" is fully translated into Italian, and if I look inside this file all those unlocalized messages belong to "kcm/libinput/main_deviceless.qml" source file.
was fixed with https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-desktop.git/commit/kcms/mouse?id=65dfdf25bef7635a84851603a507c17de7de35cb on 2018-11-10 and therefore fully translated in master build from sources using locale x-test thanks for reporting
Bukrhard, would it make sense to backport the fix to 5.14.x, asking for a translation exception? There is another 5.14.x release planned. That said, while the fix is working, it looks like a workaround. Maybe the translation file need to be renamed?
* backporting a fix for untranslated strings does not break string freeze, we would not even need to ask for an exception * how would renaming the translation file help?
