Actually, the entries do get added to the template by a patch (13_pot_desktop_msgid.dpatch), which adds the following strings to the template:
+ +msgid "XSane Image Scanner" +msgstr "" + +msgid "Scan, copy and fax images" +msgstr "" This, however, does not seem to work in the current version of the package, which creates the POT template, gets imported correctly into Launchpad, but the wrong 'Name' key gets put in the installed /usr/share/applications/xsane.desktop file: [Desktop Entry] Name=XSane Image scanning program Comment=Scan, copy and fax images [...] X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=xsane (notice "XSane Image scanning program" vs. "XSane Image Scanner", which impedes translations to be used) -- Xsane menu entry is not translatable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410234 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
