Hello,

Here is the locate output (i ran updatedb before executing)
~$ locate krusader.mo | grep sl
/usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/desktop_extragear-utils_krusader.mo
/usr/share/locale/sl/LC_MESSAGES/krusader.mo

Without grep sl, only files in /usr/share/locale/../ are shown.

I also changed the "Name" translation from "Ime" to "Ime1", built it and 
the program picked it up. This means that the translation in 
/usr/share/locale/../ is 100% the file used. I also did a diff on German 
translation directly generated from .mo file installed on this system 
and mine, Slovenian, translation. The problematic columns seem to match 
perfectly.

I'm pretty clueless here. If it would be a packaging bug (I'm using 
Kubuntu 13.04), this would also be a problem with other languagues. If 
it would be a string length bug, translation for "SIze" wouldn't be 
displayed, because it's translated as "Velikost".

Best regards,
Andrej
