[Bug 18461] New: Problem in English localization of Winelib programs
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18461 Summary: Problem in English localization of Winelib programs Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=50499 2 OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: ovek(a)arcticnet.no Most of the Winelib programs in Wine, such as winecfg, contain this in their English localization resource (En.rc): LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_DEFAULT SUBLANG_DEFAULT is 1, which for English, maps to SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US. This means that the localization in En.rc is *only* selected in an en_US locale, *not* in, say, an en_GB locale (unless no other fallback is found). It would probably better if these files said LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL so that if the user has a British English user locale (from LC_MESSAGES) and a French system locale, winecfg will show up in English, not fall back to French. (From Debian bug #504992, linked to in the URL field.) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Maybe the loader needs a special case for non-US English. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hi, i have one such case - look at bug #18710. LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL should solve the bug and ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake3/win32/q3pointrelease_132.exe will behave like in WinXP, ie. installer will not skip a question under wine. From: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776294(VS.85).aspx Note: If there is no sublanguage identifier to use with a primary language identifier, your application should use SUBLANG_DEFAULT. It should use SUBLANG_NEUTRAL for resources that are the same for all sublanguages of a primary language. Bug #10525 probably also suffers from unimplemented SUBLANG_NEUTRAL. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This bug has not been updated for three years. Is this still an issue i current (1.5.4) or newer wine ? You may also close this as abandoned if you feel that that this is issue is no longer relevant to you. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I'm not sure if Wine falls back to US English if a GB English translation cannot be found but it does appear to, and keeping the translations up to date should avoid this anyway. Marking fixed. Reopen if you can recreate this issue in latest git. Note that the Debian bug will probably never be fixed in Wine as it is now an incredibly old version. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
