Description Christian Rose 2004-08-23 23:06:44 UTC 
#: gkb-new/descs/SK__x.keyprop.desktop.in.h:1
msgid " keymap"

#: gkb-new/descs/SK__x.keyprop.desktop.in.h:2
msgid "***FIXME***"


These messages look strange.

Please note that there is currently a string freeze, so messages may not be
altered without permission. They can be removed though without permission.

I'm not sure how to resolve this bug. If I mark them as non-translatable then
those strings will appear in GNOME (they're going to appear in GNOME for C/en_US
users anyway, however those users will probably never look for this keymap). My
gut instinct says either to fix it (I don't know what they're meant to be) or to
leave them translatable to that whichever language they belong to can at least
fix it for their translation.

I'm CCing svu so he can tell us what these values are meant to be.
Comment 2 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2004-08-25 19:38:23 UTC 
From the desktop.in file, I'd say it should be "Slovak" instead of "**FIXME**".
So I would commit this fix. But we are in the string freeze. But there is
already "Slovak" in the gnome-applets.pot. Can I commit?
Comment 3 Christian Rose 2004-08-25 22:21:55 UTC 
Sure, if you change it to the exact string "Slovak" it's not a problem, since as
you say that exact string is already translated elsewhere.
Comment 4 Danielle Madeley 2004-08-26 00:30:13 UTC 
If you can do it without adding any new strings, that's fine by me.
Comment 5 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2004-08-26 20:02:34 UTC 
Done.
