[Bug 1512834] Re: slideshow-kubuntu.pot in Xenial is not updated to refer 16.04 LTS

[Lasse Liehu]

@Flames_in_Paradise: Earlier in December you said that it was "very
early" for a report of this kind. What about now? I looked at Xenial
translation statistics of ubiquity-slideshow-kubuntu into Italian and it
looks like all the strings are translated and the last change was in
October 2015.

When is the time when those translations should start to appear in the
installer of Kubuntu 16.04 daily build? Or what needs to happen or be
done before that happens?

Actually I’m a localizer of another language. And I just tried the
latest daily build of Kubuntu 16.04 and found out that I could not get
the slide show to appear in any other language than English even though
I tried a few languages (Italian, German, French and Finnish) where the
slide show was fully or almost fully translated according to translation
statistics.

Earlier there have been similar reports for Kubuntu 15.04[1] and Kubuntu
15.10[2] and those don't seem to have been solved. That means that for
example in the release build of Kubuntu 15.10 the slide show isn't
properly translated and the issue seems technical rather than an issue
of untranslated strings. It would be nice if this situation could be
avoided in Kubuntu 16.04.

Is there any way I can help to make sure that the slide show appears
translated in the final 16.04 build?
