nemo: Nemo partially localized without cinnamon-l10n package #45

Closed gm10 closed 5 years ago

gm10 commented 5 years ago

Describe the bug Nemo is mostly un-localized at least when run on 19.1 MATE without cinnamon-l10n installed.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. apt install nemo
  2. Set locale to non-English.
  3. Re-log because it seems to ignore locale environment variables passed on the command line completely
  4. Start nemo

Expected behavior Full localization (where available, of course).

Frequency Does the issue happen:

Edition (Desktop environment): In which edition is this happening?

Live or post-install: Indicate if this is happening after the installation, or during the live session:

Screenshots

That's caja in the background, properly localized, and nemo in the foreground, only some elements on the about screen localized, as well as the list of keyboard shortcuts in preferences, but that's about all.

Locale: The screenshot is with everything set to pt_BR.UTF-8, also tried everything to de_DE.UTF-8 with the same result.

Additional context

43 might be related but I do not have the problem described there of the root locale not getting loaded. It is however as limited as the user locale.

Have you cinnamon-translations installed? I think the package is called cinnamon-l10n.

gm10 commented 5 years ago

@NikoKrause installing that fixes it. It's weird to keep the localization in a separate package but if you do you should either make it a depend (it's a recommend) or not use gettext when it's not installed, because that partially localized version when it's missing just isn't right.
