Description jairbubbles 2009-03-30 22:32:26 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When opening system settings, the title is badly displayed. The weird thing is that it gets correctly displayed as soon as I click a category in the list.

The language is set to French and I had the problem in Fedora 11 and Ubuntu 9.10 which both uses QT4.5.

It's OK here for SystemSettings in my KDE 4.2 branch (I use Qt 4.4 though but I don't see how it would make a difference) and the translation file is OK: you can check it here
http://websvn.kde.org/branches/stable/l10n-kde4/fr/messages/kdebase/systemsettings.po?revision=919273&view=markup

Can't it be something in your distribution settings? 
I don't see what I can do about it as a translator especially if it's OK when you click on a category: the translation is then displayed correctly which makes it not a translation problem.
I invite you to investigate further with French users using your distribution and to report your findings then.
Thanks in advance!

By the way it's not a typo but an encoding problem, meaning the è is not displayed as UTF-8. How can this be only when you open first System Settings is a puzzle for me though.
Waiting for more info.

jairbubbles: can you either ask your distribution about this problem or test with KDE 4.2.2 as I cannot reproduce nor find anyone who can confirm this.

Thanks in advance for following this,

Anne-Marie

Distribution problem, nothing wrong in the French translation.
