[Bug 875017] Re: Translation for "Wired Connection %s" not displayed

 

Joshua: no, you completely misunderstood the working of gettext.
Identical strings are represented only once in po files, and the comment
line is only informational, the mo files do not contain them.

On the other hand, I think I have found the problem. This untranslated string does not come from the nm-applet connection wizard, but from network-manager itself: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/oneiric/network-manager/oneiric/view/head:/src/settings/nm-settings-utils.c

I have only guesses on why does it not appear translated. i18n support
seems to be all good in NM, but obviously it isn't.

Title:
  Translation for "Wired Connection %s" not displayed

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The string "Wired Connection %d" (where %d is a number) which is
  displayed when you connect to the Internet using an ethernet cable
  does show up in English, although there is a translation available and
  has been submitted in time. If you have an ethernet cable connected
  the string also appears when you click the network-icon.

  You'll find the affected string here:
