https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231491 Summary: Poor de_DE Translation of "Disk Label" Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Translations AssignedTo: ke@novell.com ReportedBy: sh@novell.com QAContact: ke@novell.com In the YaST2 partitioner, "Label" (as in "Disk Label") is translated as "Beschriftung". This is utterly misleading (carefully avoiding the term "nonsense"). This "Label" refers to a disk label (a.k.a. "volume label"), not to a price tag or something like that. The proper translation would be something like "Name", if it must be translated at all. The English word "Label" is a proper technical term here, even in German. Technical background: Those disk labels are identifiers you can assign to disk partitions (or, more exactly, to the file systems that reside on those partitions) so you can identify them easier for mounting or partitioning operations. See also "man tune2fs", "man reiserfstune", "man mkfs.vfat". They are especially useful in that YaST2 partitioner when you have to figure out which of all those partitions you see corresponds to what filesystem. You can assign labels like "work", "home", "win app" etc. to them to make mounting much easier. The necessary changes should all be in yast2/storage.po . You can find them with grep -i 'msgid.*label' storage.po -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
