GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 663480
The title of the window ("Document Viewer") is not translated
Last modified: 2011-12-07 13:33:48 UTC
Created attachment 200800 [details] screenshot of the bug Distribution : Ubuntu Oneiric 11.10 (french) Evince 3.2.1 1. Open evince ("superkey > evince" in Ubuntu - do not open evince with a .pdf) 2. The title of the window "Document Viewer" is not translated (in french it should be "Visionneur de documents")
http://l10n.gnome.org/POT/evince.gnome-3-2/evince.gnome-3-2.fr.po includes #. Manually set name and icon #: ../data/evince.desktop.in.in.h:1 ../shell/ev-window.c:4810 #: ../shell/ev-window-title.c:157 ../shell/main.c:310 #, c-format msgid "Document Viewer" msgstr "Visionneur de documents" and grep'ing the code base provides: $:andre\> grep -r "\"Document Viewer\"" . ./shell/ev-window-title.c: title = g_strdup (_("Document Viewer")); ./shell/ev-window.c: _("Document Viewer")); ./shell/main.c: g_set_application_name (_("Document Viewer")); $:andre\> grep -r "_Name=Document Viewer" . ./data/evince.desktop.in:_Name=Document Viewer ./data/evince.desktop.in.in:_Name=Document Viewer which is exactly the same list that also gets picked up in the .po translation file (except for the desktop.in file that is also correct). Please file your Ubuntu bugs in Ubuntu's bugtracker and not in GNOME Bugzilla.

Hum, Andre if you look at the screenshot the string is correctly translated (see the unity panel which shows the correct title), it seems evince doesn't set the title for the wm correctly rather
Ok, it was a real upstream bug, see bug #631612 and http://git.gnome.org/browse/evince/commit/?id=8041cc524a55a9f0943b382212daefb88f7bdb9b
