Description Enol P. 2015-11-21 13:54:37 UTC 
Since Android 5.0 is now possible to use ISO 639-2 language codes like «ast» or even «eng». KDE Connect for Android is fully translated into Asturian, but that translation is not showed up.

Versions prior to Android 5.0 cannot understand ISO 639-2, so that translations using three letter-code will be never showed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a three letter-code language on Android 5.X or greater
2. Open the app
3. See that KDE Connect is showed in English

Actual Results:  
Completed translations for three letter-code languages in this app are not showed up.

Expected Results:  
Support for ISO 639-2 language codes

It looks like the the software we are using to convert .po files to Android .xml files doesn't support 3-letter codes. Opened a bug report to them: https://github.com/miracle2k/android2po/issues/42

It's actually easier than that, and we just need to update that software :) The latest version seems to support 3-letter language codes. I will ask Albert Astals, the maintainer of the translation system, to update it.

Are there news for this?

Bye.

I was waiting on this:

https://github.com/miracle2k/android2po/issues/42

But it looks like there is little hope :/ 

I will see if we can have the dependency built from sources instead. I will update this bug to keep you posted.
Comment 6 Albert Vaca Cintora 2016-01-16 11:35:13 UTC 
Right after I posted here they made the release we were waiting for :) 

The ast translation is already in the repository, so once I make a new release it will be available on the Play Store. Expect it by Monday.

Thank you for your support.
