A patch to use suggested Name for launcher (489 bytes, patch)

Description Luca Ferretti 2007-10-07 15:26:57 UTC 
As well as applications should not use "Application" word in their visible name
(as per HIG), I think capplets should not use the word "Preferences".

A similar change was applied to at-preferences capplet, the only capplet using "Preferences" in its name. See bug 484351

I strongly suggest to remove it, and maybe use "Encryption and Keyrings"

A patch to use suggested Name for launcher

Note: patch is against trunk, but should not applied until a "gnome-2-20" branch will not created, due to string freeze.

Comment 5 Milan Bouchet-Valat 2008-02-03 22:44:58 UTC 
From duplicate Bug 514174:

By the way, the Comment line is
"Comment[en]=Configure key servers and other encryption settings"

Which is not precise nor true, because the tool is not primarily used for
server settings.

This may be better:
"Comment=Choose your default personal encryption key, change your keyring master password or configure keys publication."
Or something like that (I agree this is difficult ;-) ).

Cheers
