Hi Rüdiger.

I just checked [1] and the Holidays scope name is translated into
German. The scope only needs to be released. I have just made a 1.2
version of the scope click pkg and we can release it.

Thanks for identifying this!

Cheers,
Kyle

Title:
  Wrong German translation of "holiday"

Status in Holidays Scope:
  Fix Committed
Status in Today Scope:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The today scope can be configured to display the next holidays. The
  label has a wrong German translation.

  The word "holidays" can have two meanings in English:
  1. "official day without work" (German translation: "Feiertag" resp. "Feiertage" when referring to a single or few days; "Ferien" when referring to a longer period.)
  2. "vacation" (German translation: "Urlaub", i.e. a holiday trip.)

  Currently, the German translation reads "Urlaub", which is meaning no. 2 and obviously wrong in this context.
  The correct translation in this context would be no. 1, but it may be difficult to decide if "Feiertag(e)" or "Ferien" should be used.

  (see also bug #1429548 describing the same problem for Italian
  translation)
