Bug Description

Package: language-pack-gnome-zh-hans-base
Package Version: 1:12.04+20130128 (precise-updates)

$ export LANG="zh_CN.UTF-8"
$ gettext -e -s --domain=gnome-control-center-2.0 "Brightness and Lock"
锁屏

The output should be "亮度和锁屏"

(In my Ubuntu 12.04.2 box there is no builtin locale data in package gnome-control-center-data, this is weird, but it is another issue)

The incorrect translation 锁屏 was made some time after 12.04 was released, it is now corrected to "亮度和锁屏":

@Anthony, thank you for your information, however that is "another issue" in my bug description. Although the translation of gnome-control-center itself is correct we found it locale data is not built into the packages.

When I build gnome-control-center with debuild in my box I can find the locale data included in generated package gnome-control-center-data. But when if it is built by LP then the locale data is missing, so it will always fallback to the ones provided in language-pack-gnome-zh-hans-base.

So there is in fact two issues:
1. locale data are missing from the gnome-control-center packages built by LP (issue or design?)
2. fallback translation in language-pack-gnome-zh-hans-base are not correct.
