Description Wiktor Wandachowicz 2005-06-20 01:38:48 UTC
This one is easy. There are inconsequent shortcuts on the login screen, when
using gdm-2.6.0.9-r2 -> gentoo-emergence theme -> in Polish (LANG & LC_ALL ==
pl_PL). Basically two options: _Sesja and _Systemowe in Polish have the same
Alt+S shortcut. In effect none of them can be selected using the keyboard.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome
2. cat /usr/share/gdm/themes/gentoo-emergence/original-gentoo-emergence.xml |
grep "lang=\"pl\""

Actual Results:  
Second and third lines of the above grepping:

<text xml:lang="pl"
    xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace">_Sesja</text>
<text xml:lang="pl"
    xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace">_Systemowe</text>


Expected Results:  
I'd like to propose to differentiate the shortcuts.
I think it would be best to do as such:
_Systemowe => _Systemowe
_Sesja => S_esja

This is "compatible" with kdm's Alt+S == "Shutdown", which I use regularly on
one machine, while on the second one (with gdm) I had to patch
gentoo-emergence.xml manually.

Proposed patch to change "_Sesja" into "S_esja" in Polish translation
of gdm's theme gentoo-emergence.

Also I think it may be worth to notify upstream of this change,
should the patch be applied.

Ooops. It should be of course:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome
2. cat /usr/share/gdm/themes/gentoo-emergence/gentoo-emergence.xml | grep
"lang=\"pl\""

(a copy'n'paste'n'not-reading-after problem - sorry!)

the gentoo themes are broken translation wise, thats why they're not defaulted
to anymore.

Hmm, I guess that's exactly why this bug has been filed. So either fix them or
remove them would be a normal courses of things, IMHO. 
Comment 5 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-20 04:25:10 UTC
No it is not, I'll reopen myself if I'm convinced btw.

The themes are broken beyond repair afaic. I'm not going to add small patches
and stuff for this and that other translation while the other parts of the theme
remain broken. We've taken measures to default to a well translated theme and
that is the 'fix' in this case. Now if you're gonna say it should be removed
then, I say 'regression' and that it will be replaced in the future most likely.

Well, then remove them on the next version bump since it really does not make
sense to install something that is "broken beyond repair".
