Description Tyson Tan 2021-05-03 03:49:42 UTC 
In the lastest Appimage krita-5.0.0-prealpha-c0b6649-x86_64.appimage (2021-05-03), all languages are now listed in Switch Application Language dialogue. However, for some reason, Krita does not load Simplified Chinese translation, and will only use English regardless of the settings. Other languages work fine.
Comment 1 Halla Rempt 2021-05-03 09:09:12 UTC 
Weird, because that works here. What are your locale settings?
Comment 2 Tyson Tan 2021-05-03 09:16:47 UTC 
The system's locale is Simplified Chinese (zh_CN.UTF-8), and that only.
Comment 3 Tyson Tan 2021-05-03 17:26:43 UTC 
I've performed some tests, and found that: only the translation identical to the system's current locale would not be loaded.

For example, after I switched system locale to en_US.UTF-8, Simplified Chinese translation now works fine.

It seems that Kdenlive's Jenkins Appimage factory hasn't apply the fix. All translation is missing in kdenlive-21.07.70-63bb283-x86_64.appimage

Sorry, wrong post. It was meant for Bug 434179.
Comment 7 Tyson Tan 2021-05-03 17:57:06 UTC 
I switched system locale back to zh_CN.UTF-8. The nightly appimages of digiKam, Kate and Kdenlive can still load Simplified Chinese translation. All release appimages (including Krita) works too. It seems only Krita Night appimages has this issue.

In general, it seems ki18n never loads the current language for us on Linux, not when it's selected as an override language and not when it's not...
