Created attachment 181156 [details] [review]
use pgettext

Both are used in the info panel for "Experience" modes, but "Standard" is also used in other places in the control panels and might not always be translated the same.

The attached patch provide a gettext msgctx for both to allow unique translations.

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find.

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2011-02-17 18:30:58 UTC

FWIW, this fails to compile cleanly. Please follow up in bug 642439.

Comment 3 Khaled Hosny 2011-02-17 18:48:48 UTC

I don't think this is a duplicate for bug 642439, I already know what these strings are for but I want a different translation for "Standard" in the info panel than in accounts panel.

Sorry for the broken patch, but I can't build control center here so I just used pgettext blindly.

Comment 4 Bastien Nocera 2011-02-17 18:50:06 UTC

Right, let me reopen then.

    info: Use a context for the "Standard" string
    
    So we can use a different translation for that same word in
    the user-accounts panel, and in the info panel.
    
    Also prefix the "Fallback" string the same way.
