Could not find that string, are you sure this is in thunar? Please be so
kind to verify and tell me where you found it.

It seems to me that this string is used by more than one command. If I
change it to "désactivée" you will write again saying that "fichier :
désactivée" should be... I have no solution to this apart from changing
the answer to something like "option désactivée", that would fit all the
strings.

You are not using SVN because this string has allready been changed
sometime ago by Gérald if I recall.
