Does nb_NO work in glibc? Is no_NO an alias? Kjartaan - are you willing to do the upstream gnome work? :) I'll do the GNOME part by adding nb.po as a copy of no.po for now. I'll remove no.po over the next development cycle when I'm certain that nb_NO works as planned. I think nb_NO was added as a full locale, so they're both equal in that sense. You'll have to check glibc to be sure though. Realizing this slipped through at the moment. The proper steps would be: 1) copy all the po files on elvis 2) fix the i18n-access to allow translator access to nb 3) change the lang-table in anaconda 4) change no_NO in glibc to be an alias (to match upstream) I'll work on #1. I'll get #3 #1 done. nb_NO has been in our glibc-common since version 2.3.3-1, so good to go there. Here is Jakub's comment: * Tue Dec 02 2003 Jakub Jelinek <jakub> 2.3.3-1 ... - for the time being, include both nb_NO* and no_NO* as locales so that the distribution can catch up with the no_NO->nb_NO transition Sarah can you please update the translator database to give Kjartan access to this locale? And #3 is done as well Do I need to add something like this to gdm? diff -u -r1.37 locale.alias --- locale.alias 3 Aug 2004 23:48:55 -0000 1.37 +++ locale.alias 2 Sep 2004 19:47:38 -0000 @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@ Malay ms_MY.UTF-8,ms_MY Marathi mr_IN.UTF-8,mr_IN Mongolian mn_MN.UTF-8,mn_MN -Norwegian(bokmal) no_NO.UTF-8,no_NO +Norwegian(bokmal) no_NO.UTF-8,no_NO,nb_NO.UTF-8,nb_NO Norwegian(nynorsk) nn_NO.UTF-8,nn_NO Oriya or_IN.UTF-8,or_IN Panjabi pa_IN.UTF-8,pa_IN Wouldn't you want that reversed? (To prefer nb_NO...) Didn't know that there was a preferred order really. I mailed the maintainer about this earlier today but haven't gotten an answer. I'll reverse it if that makes sense of course :) I wonder how many other places there are like this in the distro :-/ I don't know that there *is* a preferred order, but I'd assume that's why the UTF-8 ones are first. I still haven't gotten permission to commit for the nb_NO locale it seems. Sarah? Kjartan - do you have access now? I just fixed a bug in anaconda so that it defaults correctly to nb_NO for the installed system. With this, this should be fixed. I have gotten access, but I was thrown off by not being able to commit no.po any longer. I understand that this is not needed anyway so I'm fine with the current status. The only thing I know of now is preferring nb_NO in gdm's locale.alias copy. I commited this upstream, but no release has been made since. I've also posted a call for tarballs for GNOME 2.8.1, so I'll wait and see what releases that trigger... Thanks all. Please open a separate bug for gdm in RH's bugzilla, so we can make sure we get the fix in even if the new upstream release is late. |
