Is this still happening for you with a recent version of Plasma, like 5.18 or 5.20? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Is this still happening for you with a recent version of Plasma, like 5.18 > or 5.20? I use different settings now, so I can't say for sure, but, I think, we can assume that the bug is gone. Thanks. Thanks! |
I use systemsettings 4.11.11 (in KDE 4.13.3 in KUbuntu 14.04.1 LTS). I have the following "Preferred Languages" in systemsettings: American English, British English and Ukrainian (in that order). However, many applications are still displayed in Ukrainian. I don't believe that they don't have English translation! Sample applications are: apt-get, inkscape, buttons in `NVidia XServer Settings`, messages in `bash`. The `locale` command reports: "LANG=en_US.UTF-8 || LANGUAGE=en:uk:en || LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" || LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" || LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" || LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8 || LC_ALL=". Before I added anything to "Preferred Languages" (i.e. when "Preferred Languages" list was empty), everything was ok. Even when running same program (e.g. apt-get or bash) from text console (tty1-tty6), everything is ok. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add some custom language to "Preferred Languages" in systemsettings (e.g. Ukrainian). 2. Add American English and British English _before_ it (higher priority). Actual Results: apt-get, bash, insckape, NVidia XServer Settings and other apps are fully or partially in Ukrainian. Expected Results: I expect languages to be tried in the specified order; next language in the list should be taken ONLY if the application has no translation to previous language. $ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en:uk:en LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8 LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NAME=en_US.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=en_US.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US.UTF-8 LC_ALL= It seems that `LANGUAGE` variable matters. E.g.: $ LANGUAGE='' bash -c aaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaa: command not found $ LANGUAGE='en:uk:en' bash -c aaaaaaaa bash: aaaaaaaa: команду не знайдено (However, 'en:uk:en' seems to be correct value, and anyway, I haven't specified it in any way, systemsetting did it for me.) $ locale -a C C.UTF-8 en_AG en_AG.utf8 en_AU.utf8 en_BW.utf8 en_CA.utf8 en_DK.utf8 en_GB.utf8 en_HK.utf8 en_IE.utf8 en_IN en_IN.utf8 en_NG en_NG.utf8 en_NZ.utf8 en_PH.utf8 en_SG.utf8 en_US.utf8 en_ZA.utf8 en_ZM en_ZM.utf8 en_ZW.utf8 POSIX uk_UA.utf8 $ dpkg -l | awk '{print $2}' | egrep -- '-en' aspell-en firefox-locale-en gtk2-engines-oxygen:i386 gtk3-engines-oxygen:i386 hunspell-en-us hyphen-en-us kde-l10n-engb language-pack-en language-pack-en-base language-pack-gnome-en language-pack-gnome-en-base language-pack-kde-en libreoffice-help-en-us myspell-en-au myspell-en-gb myspell-en-za mythes-en-us xfonts-encodings $ dpkg -l | awk '{print $2}' | egrep -- '-uk' firefox-locale-uk kde-l10n-uk language-pack-gnome-uk language-pack-gnome-uk-base language-pack-uk language-pack-uk-base libreoffice-l10n-uk myspell-uk
