Re: Some translation review of strings in GNOME Software

[Kenneth Nielsen <k nielsen81 gmail com>]

Hallo Richard

A translator in my group (Kris) just gave this translation an update. I 
should mention, that it wasn't very updated to begin with, so the 
comments for the string might not be limited to the strings you just 
added. He said that in general he thought it was nicely 
internationalized and had only the following comments:

############################################################
General:
The (sub) category names are not consistent. Some are plural and some 
are not.

#. TRANSLATORS: longer dialog text
#: ../src/gs-shell-details.c:306 ../src/gs-shell-installed.c:162
#: ../src/gs-shell-search.c:109
#, c-format
msgid "%s will be removed, and you will have to install it to use it again."

-- "... to reinstall it ...", maybe?


#: ../src/plugins/gs-plugin-hardcoded-menu-spec.c:512
#| msgid "Software"
msgctxt "Menu subcategory of Science"
msgid "Medical Software"

-- Should be called "Medical" instead. This will be more consistent with 
similar entries.
############################################################

If you have any questions for these comments just send them to me, as I 
don't believe he follows this list.

Regards Kenneth
