Bug Description

Some KDE applications, such as Kate, use "abort" instead of "cancel" in their confirmation dialogs. These labels should be changed to "cancel" to match the rest of the environment.

Celeste, in kdebase there are two things about which I'm unsure:
1) kdebugdialog --fullmode
has an "Abort on fatal error" checkbox. Since this is a developer-type
application should it be left alone? (Also, I think it might mean that in the
SIGABRT sense)
2) The kdm dialog regarding whether active sessions should be aborted in order
to shutdown...should that change too? If so, would "exit" be a more
appropriate term to use?

(attaching debdiff for kross in kde4libs)

Lydia pointed out that some of the games say "Abort game" instead of "End
game", so...
