Description Mikael Lammentausta 2009-08-25 11:14:00 UTC

Version:           1.0.0-SVN (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

In the digikam.pot l10n file there is a string "/Pictures" which was before localized when asking this location on the first run.

Currenly the first run wizard has been reworked so this must have dropped. The translation does not apply, digiKam offers me $HOME/Pictures.

    picturesPath = QDir::homePath() + i18nc([...], "/Pictures");

The path is still retrieved using i18n().
However, this is only the last resort. We default to system-wide settings (XDG...) retrieved with KGlobalSettings::picturesPath(). Probably your distribution has set such a path without localizing it, or there is a problem in KDE libs.
