Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
This is not a major issue, yet I feel it reflects greatly on the
professional presentation of Ubuntu (Dapper).
My Wastebasket (GNOME) has been magically renamed to "Garbage Bin". Now
I know I could change this manually, but I feel strongly that this
default naming is poor for various reasons:
Firstly, "Garbage" is slang. Secondly, "Wastebasket" is an intelligent
choice; unique and still makes sense. Thirdly, "Garbage Bin" not only
sounds wrong, it looks wrong. Finally, "garbage" is a colloquial term
used mainly in North America and this new name does not work well in
other English speaking nations. Wastebasket seems internationally
acceptable. I urge you to reconsider your recent changes. If I am
doing something wrong please inform me.
** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
