+Subject: Port translations from SUSE desktop translations project
+References: jsc#PED-15248
+Upstream: no
+
+With the deprecation and removal of the update-desktop-files tool,
+translations previously provided by the tool are now supposed to be
+upstreamed or provided via other means.
+
+After evaluating the current state of the existing translations as well as
+the chance to upstream them, we decided to drop the translations and only
+patch the specialization of the category in the XDG desktop entry.
+
+We came to this conclusion after reviewing the fitness and accuracy of the
+translated strings.  A lot of them correspond to the wrong application or
+do not fit the reference.  Therefore, they do not reach the desired quality
+level for upstreaming.
+
+Furthermore, the upstream does not have any translations present in their
+source, so chances of getting existing translations of the desired quality
+level included into upstream's source are quite slim.
