Xamarin app localization not working due to lower-case satellite folder names #15734

Closed vsfeedback closed 1 year ago

vsfeedback commented 1 year ago

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

[severity:It's more difficult to complete my work] Our Xamarin app uses localization with satellite assemblies which are packaged in to the apk (Android) and ipa (iOS) packages under sub-folders matching the appropriate culture (e.g. fr-FR for French). This appears to now be broken as the packaging creates lower-case folders (e.g. fr-fr) and then when the package is installed on a device the localization is not working. I have attached a previous package of our app where the folders were the correct case and the localization is working (Ostara5_6.zip) and a recent version where the folders are all lower-case and the localization does not work (Ostara5_7.zip).

Is this something that has changed in the packaging? We use msbuild with the switch /t:PackageForAndroid to build the APK.

Duplicate of #8728

Hi, this has been incorrectly marked as a duplicate of #8728 but it is not. That bug was raised in 2020 and was subsequently fixed (it was also iOS only). This is an issue for us now with Xamarin Forms 5.0.0.2578 in Android and iOS packages.

I have a similar issue, where the localization for es-US is not working, other localizations are working fine
