Command /usr/bin/mv wrong message in German



Hi folks,


as I could not find, which package /usr/bin/mv is belonging to and

apt-file search /usr/bin/mv did not help either, I just in form you here.


There is a little translation problem with this command. In German moving a file to anbother place is telling this:


 mv -v test2/bla.txt test1/
Datei umbenannt 'test2/bla.txt' -> 'test1/bla.txt'

The term "umbenannt" is not correct, as it woul be in English "renamed". The corret term for moving a file to another place is called "bewegen" (which means in English "to move"). Thus you should say in German


Datei bewegt 'test2/bla.txt' -> 'test1/bla.txt'


or more elegant


Datei verschoben 'test2/bla.txt' -> 'test1/bla.txt'


("verschoben" is past tense of the German word "verschieben", in English "to move" or "to shift soemthing")


It is not an important or great matter, but maybe you might want to fix it some day.


I mnoticed it just, because I am German. Sorry for that.


Best regards and please don't mind.


Hans
