Translations needed - this shouldn't take long

#1 Post by Old Giza »

Hello translators!

I see that several of you have contributed translations over the summer (northern hemisphere bias) months. Thank you!

Now we have some new translations to work on, but these are very short and likely to have close "suggestions" available on Transifex.
There are three resources, two existing, and one new:

mx-package-installer

Just needs the one word "search" to be translated.

mx-test-repo-installer

Has 6 new strings in 14 words

mx-debian-backports-installer

Is the new resource. It is very similar to mx-test-repo-installer, so there only remain 11 strings of 41 words.
Also, please add your entries in a rolling post to the desktop file below. Thank you!

let it be said that quoting just 4 words without context may sometimes end up with poor translations, of which quite a few are out there... ;-)

As far as your suggested translation change goes: I do most of the German translations, though not a native speaker but very comfortable with the language, (Would be very glad to have someone else take that over...). I use google.de when I am not sure of technical terms, and in this case found numerous cases of Debian-Installer being used, especially in Wikipedia and the official Debian page:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian-Installer
https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-ins ... ex.de.html

If you still think we should instead use "MX Debian-Backports-Installierer" as you suggest, then it would help if you could explain why. Or join Transifex and do it there.
