Description simpson-fan 2008-03-13 20:31:00 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
The German-Translation-String for ../plugins/backup-restore/backup-restore.c in evolution-2.12 german po-file, makes fist-time assistant too wide to fit screen with a 1024x768 resolution. The english original consists of two sentences divided by a "newline" while the german translation consists of one sentence without such a break. E.g. changing the line "Mails, Kalender, Aufgaben, Notizen und Adressbücher " in "Mails, Kalender, Aufgaben, Notizen und Adressbücher \n" would make the dialog fit again for 1024x768 resolution.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?


Other information:
Look here: It seems that the dialog doesn't support multiline.
