GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 571556
Gnome icon theme has non translatable emblem names
Last modified: 2015-03-13 17:33:39 UTC
Please describe the problem: 32x32 emblems in Nautilus (Right-click on a file,->Properties->Emblems ) and scalable emblems too (Edit->Backgrouns and emblems->Emblems in a folder) have non translatable names. Steps to reproduce: 1. Right-click on a file,->Properties->Emblems 2. Go to Edit->Backgrouns and emblems->Emblems in a folder Actual results: You see that emblem names are not set up for translations. Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Created attachment 128598 [details] [review] This patch comes from bug #172353 in launchpad for ubuntu gnome-icon-theme.
Is there any news about this bug? The patch is ready to be applied :-)
As I don't really grok the patch to blindly apply, can you take a look at this, Rodney?
Any news on this bug? Karmic is coming very soon so it would be nice to have the patch applied in time for it. Thank you.
Comment on attachment 128598 [details] [review] This patch comes from bug #172353 in launchpad for ubuntu gnome-icon-theme. We really shouldn't need to have these files for every size (and this patch only adds for one size). And some of these things shouldn't even be emblems.
Yes, I agree with you. This patch is intended to patch just the emblems which names is visible but untranslatable. You can find them in both: Right-click on a file,->Properties->Emblems Open a folder, go to Edit->Backgrounds and emblems->Emblems So we need to fix just them. I did a similar patch for human-icon-theme that was applied in time for Jaunty, doing the same for gnome-icon-theme (in Ubuntu). The problem is on the .po file. In Ubuntu .po files have been regenerated for both but it fits just for human-icon-theme, because gnome-icon-theme comes for upstream which is not fixed. The result is that "Default" and "System" emblems (present in gnome-icon-theme) are now translatable in theory but in fact we can't translate them because of the po. I hope I have made it clear.
@Rodney Any news about this bug?
We should really move the emblem translations to nautilus. Translations don't belong in an icon theme.

emblems functionality is no longer exposed in Files.
