On a fresh installation of Fedora 17, having done a full yum update and reboot, Telepathy's IM Contact Buddy Group titles, as imported from GTalk, AIM, Facebook, etc. ignore that my system-wide pref in KDE is for US English, and shows only the title text string in Arabic, complete with it being right-to-left and right-aligned. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add any major IM provider's active user acct to Telepathy 2. Make sure you can view contacts by groups 3. See Arabic Actual Results: Exactly as decribed. I cannot validate what is being printed in Arabic. I only speak and read English as Castellano. My only friends who are even near the Arabic-speaking parts of the world are Indian and themselves speak Hindi and English. Maybe we could get a screenshot or copy-paste the Arabic text and show it to someone who can read it correctly. I wonder what it says ^_^ Expected Results: The software should have followed the lang prefs from the rest of Plasma. Initial setup chose english, so all software KDE-related under Plasma should follow a system-wide preference for localization and support for such. Does not affect or in any way infringe on the functionality of the application or any dependencies. Rep is filed as 'MINOR' but sysadmins should be notified for future maintenance releases to the product.
Is it just the group names in the list? Because we actually don't translate them (as that wouldn't make much sense). Can you try installing Empathy and connect there (your accounts should be already there) and check if it's ok there? Thanks!
Screenshot please!
Without at least a screenshot we've nothing to go on here. Sorry. Closing. Reopen if you still have this issue in 0.4 and can provide us any useful information.
