Re: [pgAdmin4][Patch]: Fixed 2190 - Move language selection to Preferences.

Hey, I think this is the feature Dave meant when telling me to wait for it's completion before submitting the German translation. I already completed the German translation some weeks ago, can I submit it in the next days?

Thanks - committed.

I'm fine with that; however, the strings should come from the
underlying drivers of course, as only they should have specific
knowledge of details such as the name of the database server they
provide access to.

The string always comes from drivers as they are being registered from there.

I have attached the patch to translate the entire string.

I took the reference of the string from the messages.po file and translated, so someone has to validate that this is the correct translation.

All I see in the patch is updates to the message catalog. It seems to me there should be chunks in there to push the entire string back into the relevant driver, otherwise the changes to the messages.po files will be overwritten the next time I do an extract/merge. 

Essentially, I think we need to add properties to the drivers, such as:

BIN_PATH_LABEL = _("PostgreSQL Binary Path")

BIN_PATH_HELP = _("Path to the directory containing the PostgreSQL utility programs (pg_dump, pg_restore etc).")

Then in types.py, we'd have something like:

            st.utility_path = paths.register(

                'bin_paths', st.stype + '_bin_dir',

                st.BIN_PATH_LABEL,

                'text', default_path, category_label=_('Binary paths'),

                help_str=st.BIN_PATH_HELP

                )

            )

Thanks.
