[4] I understand that some strings are handled by the Ubuntu TranslationTeam [6], while others are translated by Xfce's [7]. Therefore I have roughly sorted them. # Solutions Correct the translations upstream in Xfce [5] if possible. Correct the translations in Ubuntu's Launchpad. I am a native French speak so I can help with translations. # Steps to reproduce the bug 1- Download the ISO [2] 2- Run it with qemu [3] or wih a USB stick (for the latter, `dd` the ISO) 3- Select `Français` (French) 4- Select `Essayer Xubuntu` (Try Xubuntu) # Links & commands [1] http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/388/builds/169633/testcases/1303/results [2] http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/388/builds/169633/downloads [3] `sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2G -enable-kvm /path/to/bionic-desktop-amd64.iso` [4] Xfce: https://www.transifex.com/xfce/public/ [5] https://docs.xfce.org/contribute/translate/start |6] https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+lang/fr/+index?batch=75 [7] https://git.xfce.org/ # Untranslated strings and steps to find them Various comments are in parentheses.
