As asked, a bug was file to the Mageia distribution:

https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19621


Description of problem:

When copying a file in mc (midnight commander) the localization in Portuguese is incorrect and difficults viewing the names of the files.

A (bad) workaround is using a small character size and a very wide terminal window.

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install mc with pt-BR locale.
2. Try to copy a file with F5 (copy).
3. Observe wrong string on screen.

Example screen in English, for reference:

Screenshot of problem (in Portuguese):

BTW, using the infinitive form, ""Preserve attributes"" translates as ""Preservar atributos"".

Just a note: my locale is Brazil Portuguese (pt-BR) not just Portuguese (pt).

Thanks for your attention. Please advise me if you need more info."	defect	closed	major		translations	master	wontfix					no branch
