keyboard shortcuts are displayed not translated

Those are translated in gsettings-desktop-schemas and can be translated, the issue there seems rather than the translations are not being used by the settings interface

The strings come from mutter and it seems an issue with the template generation in launchpad, from the build log

The strings from the data/*.xml files are missing from the template (but are listed upstream and in the .po for the source)

Gunnar, is that maybe something you could have a look to? Do you know if the file type can be specified for gettext somewhere? (in the POTFILES.in?)

Submitted a Debian merge request too according to IRC conversation with Sebastien.

https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/merge_requests/28

I've uploaded that to experimental, thanks!

Not sure how to handle the Ubuntu side.

Gunnar / Marco, could one of you please SRUify this bug? It's going to be included in the upload (backport from eoan).

This bug was fixed in the package mutter - 3.32.1-2ubuntu1

---------------
mutter (3.32.1-2ubuntu1) eoan; urgency=medium

  * Merge with debian
    - Update to 3.32.1 upstream version (LP: #1826936)
    - Fix applications aren't focused in Wayland session (LP: #1826176)
    - Fix crash on hotplugging a dock with a monitor (LP: #1826182)
    Remaining changes:
    + debian/control:
      - Update VCS flags to point to launchpad
      - Update maintainer to ubuntu
    + debian/gbp.conf: update branch to point to ubuntu/master
    + debian/patches/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch:
      - X11: Add support for fractional scaling using Randr
  * d/p/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch:
    - Fixed crash on calculation of global scale (LP: #1826933)

mutter (3.32.1-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Cherry-pick patches from upstream gnome-3-32 branch:
    - compositor-Destroy-window-actors-list-on-destruction.patch,
      compositor-Disconnect-from-stage-signals-on-destruction.patch: Fix crash
      when exiting. (LP: #1813716)
    - 0-initialize a struct we'll be memcmp()ing.
  * Reorder patch series so upstream patches come first (no conflicts, no
    refreshing required).

mutter (3.32.1-1) experimental; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
  * debian/patches: disable mousekeys with Numlock ON to match the
    documentation (cherry picked from the 3.32 branch)

mutter (3.32.0+git20190410-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Gunnar Hjalmarsson ]
  * Add gnome-control-center-data to Build-Depends. This package provides
    gnome-keybindings.{its,loc}. These are needed if the translation template
    is regenerated at build-time to translate the key bindings defined in
    data/50-*.xml. (LP: #1823722)

Not sure how those translations would be brought to the users.

The strings from the XML files are now back in eoan:

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/eoan/+source/mutter/+pots/mutter/fr

and the translations will be included in the language packs for eoan once they are built.

A SRU build will bring the strings to LP for disco too, but there is no plan AFAIK to accomplish a language pack update for disco. It means that the bug won't really be fixed for disco.

Maybe it would be better to drop the reference to this bug from the changelog when uploading to disco? (I see that it's in the queue already, so I guess I suggest another modified upload.)

It'd be easier for me if the change could be accepted, even if it has no functional impact (that makes the SRU a straight backport). So to that end it'd be good to reassure the SRU team that this won't break anything.

Ok, I "SRUified" it. Dropped the Ubuntu MP too.

Hello Olivier, or anyone else affected,

Accepted mutter into disco-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/3.32.1-2ubuntu1~19.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-disco to verification-done-disco. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-disco. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Test case verified, which means that the build succeeded in the sense which applies to this bug report.

The problem is still present on my disco after apply disco-proposed updates

@Olivier: mutter is fixed, which is what the verification is about. (Your change would block the pending mutter SRU from being moved to -updates.)

What's not fixed is the language packs; it would require a language pack update, and a general Disco update will probably not happen.

https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/05/06/%23ubuntu-desktop.html#t13:27

To really fix it in Disco for a particular language, this is a possibility:

The verification of the Stable Release Update for mutter has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

It's finally fixed with language-pack-fr/focal,focal,now 1:20.04+20200407 all
on focal.
