Title:
Unity truncates some translated menu item labels (on French
Thunderbird)
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
On a standard French Ubuntu 12.04 install, some menu item labels are
truncated in Thunderbird.
On the same machine, if you switch to Gnome classic, the menu labels are not
truncated.
The problem happens with Thunderbird 15.0, but it already happened
with Thunderbird 10.0 (in 12.04 alpha)
In Thunderbird, open the menu "Tools" ("Outils" in French).
The menu "Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder" is translated "Traquer les
indésirables dans le dos..."
The menu "Delete Mail Marked As Junk in Folder" is translated "Supprimer les
indésirables de ce dos..."
These translations are truncated. The last word should be "dossier" ("folder"
in English) instead of "dos..."
In French, the word "dos" means "back" (in a human body). So this truncated
translation means "run junk mail controls in your back..."!
I found it funny, but I'm not sure it was on purpose ;-)
