Comment # 19 on bug 900863 from Dominique Leuenberger

I'd say not ok: I would expect the same result in GNOME:Factory as I can
hopefuly expect in openSUSE:Factory; it's the same package source after all.

Quiet strange imho to take translations out of the .desktop files and offload
this to .mo files; where you have to worry about all kind of gettext domains in
plus.

Neither in gnome-shell on openSUSE 12.3, not 13.1 did we have any patches for
that. And the overview screen in quesiton is gnome-shell, reading the .desktop
files. Making an assumption that this would end up somewhere else is quite bad.

As for the hunting:

openSUSE:Factory buildlog contains
LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/intltool-merge  -d -u -c ../../po/.intltool-merge-cache
../../po gnome-power-panel.desktop.in gnome-power-panel.desktop
Found cached translation database
Merging translations into gnome-power-panel.desktop.
=> Upstream has all those strings translated... we should only fixup stuff they
miss, not mess with the upstream translations.

whereas GNOME:Factory buildlog contains:
LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/intltool-merge  -d -u -c ../../po/.intltool-merge-cache
../../po gnome-power-panel.desktop.in gnome-power-panel.desktop

(whithout the 'Found cached translation database' output)
