In the end, this isn't really important. What matters is that you have to explain lots of users that they need to reconfigure their OS language from german to german in order to pick german as language manually inside VDR. > Please try the patch I have posted yesterday under "improving i18n-to-gettext.pl" > (vdr-1.5.7-i18n-matchlocale.diff)? Seems to make no difference. Probably because setlocale only accepts the full "de_DE@euro" string. There must be some way how this is supposed to work. Even if my locale is set to de_DE@euro and there's no pure de_DE in locale -a, almost all distribution' locales are in /usr/share/locale/de/, and they work. There must be some mapping from de_DE@euro down to de_DE and de.
