Bug Description
It seems that the Synaptic package only ships a subset of the available translations in the code:
$ sudo apt-get install synaptic
$ dpkg -L synaptic | grep synaptic.mo | wc -l
44
$ bzr branch lp:synaptic
$ cd synaptic
$ ls po | grep "\.po\b" | wc -l
111
This was first noticed using an en_AU locale:
Language is set to English (Australia). Synaptic fails to display en_AU translations, such as dialog, organized and Colors
Should be dialogue, organised and Colours.
These have been translated months ago -- https:/

Moving the bug from ubuntu-translations to synaptic, as synaptic is no longer in main and thus cannot be translated in Ubuntu (but can still be translated upstream at https:/ /translations. launchpad. net/synaptic/ main/)
