It seems that this bug persists in Fedora 13. Today I triaged a bug [1] for missing .desktop translations in policycoreutils. If you guys have filed similar bugs regarding this issue please let me know.

This has been a recurrent issue with policycoreutils. I noticed the same happens with .desktop strings in pt_BR translations. Interestingly, I don't see problems with the strings shown in your screenshot. I'm able to see those ones in pt_BR, but not the menu string "SELinux Management", for instance.
Hmm. My guess is that the translations were packaged at a certain date/time and only a few early bird translations made it to the build. Perhaps we can make some noise and get this fixed for F-12.

After parsing the src.rpm, I think I found the origin of the bug: the .pot available in Transifex is the official .pot plus a patch from RedHat, and yet, all the untranslated strings like "Network Port", "Process Domain" came from this patch. So I suppose that the patch is buggy or "patch" (the programm) can't manage some locales.
So it certainly looks more like a problem with both 'packaging' and the existence of entries which were probably not 'marked for translation'. What I am thinking is that filing a bug against F-11 may not help here because in all probability it would be marked for fixing in 'rawhide' and it would mean that we have to wait for the versions for F-12 to roll out. :(
Any other thoughts here?
Thanks Runa
