Problems with internet search

Hi,

I have some problems with the internet search dialog.

I'll just describe what I'm doing and how Tellico reacts. I have a
simple barcode reading pen here, but the problem also manifests when
entering the search by hand.

So I want to add the book to my book collection. I open the internet
search dialog. Since I want to scan the barcode of my book, I select
"UPC" (shouldn't it be EAN/UPC or something like this?). Then I scan the
very boring book with the EAN code 9783924861315. Here comes the first
odd thing: Right after I scanned the code, the selection box changes
from UPC to ISBN. I ignored this and pressed the search button (I have
selected the german Amazon as a source). A dialog box tells me:

9783924861315 is not a valid value for ItemId. Please change this value
and retry your request.

After that, the input box is totally messed up, I can't delete single
characters from it in any way (Try setting the cursor befor the forth
character and delete multiple times, it looks quite funny...).

I have tested this with the Tellico in Debian unstable and the current
1.2.x-branch, they behave exactly the same here.

Another thing: Where should I send updates for the German translation? I
saw that it was a bit out of date and would be willing to update the
strings. Should I just grab the files from the SVN branch and post a
diff to this list?

Greetings, Tobi
