My locale is de_AT.UTF-8. Many gnome programs (for example gnome-help or
the clock applet in the panel) don't tell me the name of the program in
the About dialog. Instead they tell me a translation of the name! This
may be a nice information too, but I use the About dialog specifically
to find out what program (or version) I am dealing with.
How am I supposed to find the package/command/process id/bug page for the
application with the name "Uhr" or "Hilfe"?
This is not only a locale problem, as evince introduces itself as "Document
Viewer".
It is nice that programs have human readable descriptions (nobody would
guess what "evince" is meant to do) but there should be some way to find
out the real name of the program.
