[Bug 885086] Re: XDG "Desktop" item not translated on Oneric Live CD

 

I can see this too. 
I found the following facts:
- if you run xdg-user-dirs-update after removing the .config/user-dirs.dirs file, it regenerates it without translating the ~/Desktop name, but everything else is translated.
- if you run xdg-user-dirs-update --force, the ~/Desktop name is translated too.
- /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60xdg-user-dirs-update runs xdg-user-dirs-update without the --force option.

Title:
  XDG "Desktop" item not translated on Oneric Live CD

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “xdg-user-dirs” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I switch the language on my Oneiric Live CD, other XDG
  directories are translated except the "Desktop" item. When I have a
  look inside ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs, the string is untranslated
  (other strings in the file are translated all right). If I run xdg-
  user-dirs-update, ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs is updated to the correct
  translation. So I suppose that the default Live CD user is created by
  some not-localized hackish solution.

  If this seems not so important, since installed systems have the
  "Desktop" directory translated all right (at least I hope so, because
  my system has), it certainly affects all Ubuntu localized Live-CDs and
  makes them fail the basic "translated or not surface check".
