Names and untranslated tooltips

The names and tooltips for the IBus Preferences and Imput Method settings entry are not translated into Brazilian Portuguese.
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2022-07-24 17:09:51 UTC
It looks like the app's .desktop file has a Brazilian Portuguese translation for these strings:

$ grep pt_BR /usr/share/applications/org.freedesktop.IBus.Setup.desktop 
38:Name[pt_BR]=Preferências do IBus
86:Comment[pt_BR]=Definir Preferências do IBus

Could be a code issue on our side. A few questions:
1. Does this happen with any other apps?
2. Does it happen in Kickoff's List View mode?
3. Does it happen if you temporarily switch to Kicker (Application Menu)?

Answers to questions:

1. Yes, IBus Preferences and Input Method.
2. Yes, it happens in list view.
3. Yes, it happens with other launcher options.

I mean, does it affect any other apps besides those two?

ksnip and Grub Customizer, but they are not KDE applications but third-party applications.
