Title:
  German strings in deja-dup.mo for en_GB

Status in language-pack-gnome-en package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in language-pack-gnome-en source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Description ]

  Some German strings were accidentally translated under en_GB. They
  affect the default Ubuntu install - some of them are strings which are
  displayed as a notification some time after first logging in, so it's
  quite visible. See the attached screenshot.

  [ Fix ]

  Revert the German and go back to the proper English text. The way to
  fix langpacks is to upload the language-pack-gnome-XX package which
  replaces files in language-pack-gnome-XX-base.

  [ Devel release ]

  I'd like to propose to binary copy forward, and let the normal
  langpack release schedule take care of eventually dominating these
  away in impish.

  [ QA ]

  To verify the diff, compare deja-dup.po from language-pack-gnome-en-
  base to the one in this upload. You'll have to do that manually.

    0. Be in en_GB.
    1. Install the SRU
    2. In an Ubuntu Desktop session, open a terminal and run `deja-dup --prompt`.
    3. Note the buttons in the notification that shows up. They should be in English.

  [ What could go wrong ]

  1. There could be other instances of this in different packages we haven't noticed yet
  2. If I break the .po file, it could either break the build or the translations at runtime (but this is English, so if we fall back to C it's not too bad)
  3. If my diff is wrong then I might have dropped some en_GB translations or made them wrong
