How are they "fixed"?
fixed == fijas in Spanish. Not "mended", but immutable.
Maybe this is part of the problem. The openSUSE Spanish translation is incomplete to say the least. This in itself a big problem when you are working in a Spanish environment. You shouldn't need to be fluent in English to use Linux. But my gad, you're knackered if you aren't. The few bits that are translated into something meaningful (as opposed to sticking it in Google translate) tend to be for desktop users.
Yast and the programs made by openSUSE are translated manually, I am one of the translators, and it is good quality. We don't use google translator. The rest of the applications depend on upstream. That is, we only translate things for which we are the "upstream". KDE has its own team of translators, and good ones. Gnome I'm not sure. Mozilla, LibreOffice... GNU has the gnu translation project. Many apps are not translated, other incomplete. However, I prefer the desktop in English, I'm more familiar with it. In general, you need to be able to at least read English if you are a programmer or computer admin. Even if things are translated, English books are more recent, and English forums/lists are more populated. Man pages / Info pages are seldom translated, and if they are, they are obsolete.
As the Spanish observe, English speakers tend to speak English. Only. Given /var/log/messages in Spanish, many would give up.
Usually I can not follow logs in English,
Now, all we need is someone to jump from behind a bush and mention the existence of a Spanish mailing list!
There is one ;-) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
