Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: brasero
In British English, the word has only a rather inappropriate and comic
meaning in this context:
to direct (the libido) toward an infantile form of gratification
to focus or concentrate one's gaze or attention intently or obsessively
to undergo arrestment at a stage of development
It seems the word can have the desired meaning in American English, but
only as a Transitive verb:
transitive verb 1 : to make fixed, stationary, or unchanging
I believe Windows says something like 'finalising the disk'. 'Fixating
the disk' might be OK in AE (I don't know, I'm British), but 'fixating'
raises a gigle every time I see it.
** Affects: brasero (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
