Digikam remains unlocalized after a fresh installation

With the 8.2.0 just released and current pre-release version, the problem is not reproducible on my macbook pro: https://imgur.com/F3b4pO9 Best regards Gilles Caulier (In reply to caulier.gilles from comment #1) > With the 8.2.0 just released and current pre-release version, the problem is > not reproducible on my macbook pro: > > https://imgur.com/F3b4pO9 > > Best regards > > Gilles Caulier Do you run it on an ARM Mac as well? For the previous screenshot, no, it's Intel mac. But i have another MacBook air where is will take a look. Gilles Caulier OK, I am running it on an M2 MacBook Pro. It was a fresh install. It work perfectly on my MacBook air M1 and Ventura, as on my ol MacBookPro Intel. Gilles Caulier I just installed it on a completely fresh brand new install on an Intel macOS Ventura. I just installed macOS now, it doesn't even have other softwares than the macOS default ones. Digikam has been the first software to be installed after the initial system set up. I got exactly the same result with everything in English, unlocalized as it should be. In the localisation settings, French has been selected by default, but everything is displayed in English! Since you are the developer, how did you install it? Your installation can include libraries available on your computer, that haven't been well packaged in the regular package installer. I tried several packages available in the download section on the website. And whatever the package I downloaded, I got the same result. You should try on another session or into a VM to isolate everything from your development environment. Created attachment 164069 [details]

I made some tricking and I found the reason. It's a bug in the initialization process. It's specific to Ventura and above. In the settings, I reverted language to English and relaunched Digikam. Then I changed the language again to French and it worked. I have the same or a similar issue with 8.3.0 on Windows https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478550 Git commit 6a8923a38ab1e91997f4fc35b8be45ebdf988676 by Maik Qualmann.
