I wonder why anyone would even want that translated. German is my
mother tongue, and still I find it mentally disturbing to read through
the messages. If I'd have to look at these monstrosities all day, I
would certainly not want to touch XFS ever again ;).

Not that the translations are bad, they are just worse than useless.
English error messages can be googled, while for the german ones I'd
have to mentally translate them back and guess what the original
meaning was in order to make any sense of them.

One random error I caught: Schlußdialog -> Schlussdialog
"ausrangieren" for "discarding"? Hehe ;). Maybe rather "verwerfen"?
