gimp: program uses the default language instead of changed one #4825

Open freedom4JA opened 2 years ago

freedom4JA commented 2 years ago

I use GIMP-2.10 and after a time my system-notification asked me to download the german language ( I think its something with gnome in the name) So far so good.

When I start GIMP without firejail from now on it uses the german language for GIMP. But when I use it with firejail it uses the preset "system language" in english. I searched for the problem for a while but couldn't find how to solve. Maybe it don't finds the changed language pack which I installed. Does someone know where to find it respectively to solve the problem. I would like to use german language.

If I'm not mistaken GIMP installations usually put the language stuff in /usr/share/locale (at least that's what I can see on my Arch Linux box). And we whitelist that path in whitelist-usr-share-common.inc.

Just to make sure, are you refering to the programs locale files or the GIMP help files? The latter might get packaged differently by your OS. What OS and firejail version are you seeing this on?

Yes, I mean the programm itself with it's content like "save as", "open new file" ... and "brush" , what I want in german so the locale I guess. I use Linut Mint 20.2 and the latest firejail 0.9.66

Now I use 20.3 and latest firejail. Could't solve to integrate the german gnome-language-pack by myself. If someone know how to use it, that would be nice.
