Public bug reported:
Hello,
while testing the current daily live image of Kubuntu Focal, I
discovered that the menu entries of the boot menu got wrong
translations.
Steps to reproduce:
- Boot from USB stick with live image (System without UEFI)
- After BIOS setup finished, press F2 to open the "Select language" menu
- Select "Deutsch"
Now the boot menu entries are translated, but with wrong translations
(see also attached screenshots):
English | German (wrong)
--------------------------------------
"Start Kubuntu" ---> "Nur freie Programme" (Only free software)
right translation: "Kubuntu starten")
"Start Kubuntu (safe graphics)" (this one is not translated)
"Check disc for defects" ---> "Edubuntu installieren" (Install
Edubuntu) right translation: "Datenträger auf Fehler überprüfen")
"Test memory" ---> "Kubuntu starten" (Start Kubuntu) right
translation: "Arbeitsspeicher prüfen")
"Boot from first hard disk" ---> "Edubuntu im Textmodus installieren"
(Install Edubuntu in text mode) right translation: "Von der ersten
Festplatte starten")
The line at the screen bottom which lists the action of the function
keys seems also mistranslated.
If I select e.g. the first entry "Nur freie Software", it does what the
english version of the first entry says (--> Start Kubuntu). So it seems
that in german all entries got the translation of a different menu item
assigned (e.g. menu item 4 got the translation of menu item 1).
Kind regards,
Jan
