Subject: po/en_AU.po has Sinhalese (not English) translations for catfish.desktop

Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2015 19:04:55 +1000

Package: catfish
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal

On upgrading from Wheezy to Jessie,
Apps > Accessories > Catfish suddenly switched from English to Sinhalese.

A glance at the catfish.desktop file shows [en_AU] has the same entries as [si].
This issue is present as at 1.2.2-1 in po/en_AU.po.
I think these are the relevant entries:

    diff --git a/po/en_AU.po b/po/en_AU.po
    index a8c7a72..ba6730c 100644
    --- a/po/en_AU.po

Other entries in en_AU.po are in English and at a glance,
they all appear to be identical to the source language.
Should en_AU.po simply be removed?
(I do not know much about translating.)

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

This is fixed upstream

en_AU exists for the minor language differences from american english to
australian english, but catfish doesn't have anything that really needs the
translation
