SUMMARY *** Translation in Discover for updating the system in German language should be changed. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Discover (in German) 2. Open Update-Dialog OBSERVED RESULT The buttons to refresh the updatable list ("Aktualisieren" = refresh/update) and for applying the updates ("Alle aktualisieren" = refresh/update all) is confusing. EXPECTED RESULT It should be more clear what those buttons do. I suggest using - Refresh -> "Auf Aktualisierungen prüfen" - Apply updates -> "Aktualisierungen anwenden" or "Aktualisierungen installieren" SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2
Thanks for reaching out. :) I agree, these two buttons are weird next to each other. I will probably use the "Auf Aktualisierungen prüfen" for the Refresh button. What about "Apply Updates"? Is that a suggestion for the original string? Here the button is labeled "Update all". For the German translation, I would like to keep the "Alle aktualisieren" for "Update all" to not go too far from the original and to not have two quite long strings there extending the button layout.

I'm sorry, that was not a suggestion for a new label in English. I just not had the correct string in English at hand, so I guessed. :D I see the reason for the German translation of "Update all". And I think, having the Refresh button relabeled makes the function of "Update All"/"Alle aktualisieren" clear.
If I see this correctly, "Refresh" has been "Check for Updates" before but was changed. Before: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/blob/Plasma/5.19/libdiscover/resources/ResourcesModel.cpp#L103 After: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/blob/master/libdiscover/resources/ResourcesModel.cpp#L100 So, "Aktualisieren" would be a perfectly fine translation for the overly generic term used in the application now. Not sure why it was decided that "Refresh" would be better than "Check for Updates" but well ... Since "Aktualisieren" is equally bad, I will change it as suggested to "Auf Aktualisierungen prüfen".
