I sent this over the weekend, and apparently it got lost in the list shuffle, so lets see if it makes it this time, or maybe we'll eventually get a duplicate: At Thursday morning's meeting, one of my tasks was to put together an RPM for testing with the various desktops. I have such an RPM at <http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1911849&name=ig-12.2.1-3.fc12.noarch.rpm> This is not a particularly useful document since I only packaged four languages to keep the size down. I picked the Install Guide rather than the Release Notes since it is a more complex document, but I didn't do all the po file merging, so the documents are only partially translated. In using the Install Guide I ran across an oversight in my packaging program which has been corrected (and pushed to git). But you can install it an check that on the various desktops it shows up in multiple languages. The languages in the RPM are U. S. English, Spanish (Español), Kannada (ಕನ್ನಡ), and Traditional Chinese (繁體中文). I wanted a few languages with different character sets just in case there was some weirdness there. Kannada won simply because most of the other Indic languages had errors in the translation and would not build. The document SHOULD show up in Gnome under System->Documentation, in KDE under System, and in XFCE under Other. Unfortunately, Book_Info.xml was mostly not translated, so the menu choices are mostly English. Note that on a pure KDE system, the pre-login language chooser you see in Gnome is not available. On a Gnome/KDE system, it is, but KDE seems to ignore it for about 90% of the things that should be changed. KDE has several places where the language can be changed, but none seem to do it 100%. We need some KDE expert. Kannada does not seem to work well at all, again, perhaps a system normally used that way would be better. On my system, Epiphany sees the language code as "kn IN" (no dash or underscore), all the other browsers see some variant of US English when logged in with Kannada as the selected language. I think I may need to do an extensive investigation. es-ES and zh-TW seem to work fine, but we need more eyes. --McD -- docs mailing list docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/docs
