Bug Description

gnome-control-center does not appear fully translated, even though it is fully translated in launchpad. For example, the following string from the Appearance tab has been translated in launchpad since 2013, but still appears untranslated in an up to date install of trusty.

https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/gnome-control-center-unity/+pots/gnome-control-center-unity/nl/+translate?batch=10&show=all&search=Add+show+desktop

One thing that might be related is the switch from gnome-control-center to gnome-control-center-unity. This bug is filed against gnome-control-center, since gnome-control-center-unity is not installed on my system. However, gnome-control-center-unity is what is listed as the template to translate in launchpad.
gnome-control-center also exists in launchpad, but it keeps timing out so I can't check the status of that string, see: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/gnome-control-center/+pots/gnome-control-center-2.0/nl/+translate

I encountered this problem for Dutch, I'm not sure if it exists for other languages

The string "Add show desktop icon to the launcher" shows correctly in Chinese.

In fact, the application that is used in Ubuntu is called "unity-control-center" although it is ~95% identical to gnome-control-center.

The corresponding catalog is on the end of the 14.04 catalog list, so the message that was mentioned is not translated into Dutch:

In Trusty gnome-control-center was "renamed" to unity-control-center and the string you used as example is effectively untranslated:

In Spanish that sentence is ok too. I guess this bug should be closed as Invalid as there is no problem at all with the translations.

Existing gnome-control-center translations were copied into unity-control-center when this fork was created. But strings that appeared after the fork, such as the new Unity local menus settings in "Appearance" are only in the fork.
