[STR New]

The CUPS package contains a handy shortcut "Manage Printing" for Linux
desktops (KDE/GNOME). In the source tree it's the 'desktop/cups.desktop'
file and it instructs to exec 'htmlview http://localhost:631/'. However,
its Name and Comment entries are translated only to Spanish (apart from
English, of course). Which is a bit odd, since the rest of the Web
interface is neatly translated into several other languages.

I've checked the cups-1.2.1, 1.2.2 and 1.3svn-r5823 versions and the file
in question is the same in all releases. I've been told [1] to bring this
problem to the CUPS developers and so I do. I already created a patch [2]
against cups-1.2.1, but I regenerated it against cups-1.2.2.

The attached patch adds two entries ("Name[pl]=" and "Comment[pl]=") to
the 'cups.desktop' file, along with translated text. Please review the
patch and apply against the aforementioned versions if possible. Also note
that the included patch is encoded in UTF-8.

With best regards,
Wiktor Wandachowicz

PS.
It also may be of benefit to add further translated entries to this
..desktop file. Please consider adding the 'cups.desktop' to the list of
files that should be translated with every CUPS revision.
