That is not the problem at hand. I know how to use gettext. The problem is that the string selected there gets stored in the configuration file, and putting localized entries into a configuration is always a bad idea. One could think about storing the index of the selected entry instead, but that will break once new entries get added anywhere but the end of the list. So the real fix that no one felt the need to implement is to put the translated string into the list, and after confirming the dialog the code has to iterate over the possible options and compare the selected string with the translation of the current iterator position. Ugly. An alternative would be to not use normal drop down boxes but something that internally stores a second column with the untranslated string so that can be written out. Les ugly but takes more work to implement. If anyone feels the need to write that code please approach me (houz) in IRC and discuss it. But who knows, maybe I will feel bored myself and do it.
