Bug 1350185

Note: I use virt-manager from very long time and my installation work fine up to fedora 23 . After update to Fedora 24 (with dnf system-upgrade) virt-manager can't start or create any VM

Looks like someone mistranslated the translation string and messed up variable names. If you run LOCALE=C virt-manager --debug it should avoid the issue, I'll try to follow up with the translators

Debug log with error

Hi
Yes, it's a translation problem 

I have try to run 

LOCALE=C virt-manager --debug

but I receive the same error (See attach Debug log with error)

Then I have try to create this little script for changing it_IT  (My language) in en_US 

If i launch this script virt-manager display in english but work fine with no error
-----------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

export GDM_LANG=en_US.utf8
export LANG=en_US.utf8
export LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.utf8
export LC_MONETARY=en_US.utf8
export LC_NUMERIC=en_US.utf8
export LC_PAPER=en_US.utf8
export LC_TIME=en_US.utf8

LOCALE=C virt-manager --debug
-------------------------------------

Thank you for hour help. 
It's necessary to open a new translation bug or you can send this bug to the translators team ?

Me too have this problem (LANG=it_IT.utf8)

In my case, this command is sufficient to bypass the problem:

LANG=en_US.utf8 virt-manager

Thanks
Dario

The translator in the po file is listed as tchuang, who I've emailed. But if anyone else is a translator the place to fix it is fedora.zanata.org, then I can pull the updated file into fedora virt-manager

I have send today (28/06/2016, 14.43 +0200) this email to  tchuang:

Hi Terry,

At line 1463 of this file:
https://github.com/virt-manager/virt-manager/blob/master/po/it.po

There is a bug:
> msgid "%(vm-name)s on %(connection-name)s"
> msgstr "%(nome-mv)s su %(nome-connessione)s"

the translation line must be: 
> msgid "%(vm-name)s su %(connection-name)s"

This error produce on Fedora 24 this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1350185

Thanks

I'm a simple user, I'm not able to rebuild the package with patch.

Sorry

Hi, I've fixed on Zanata the translation: now variable is correct.

Can you please regenerate the package  before the myth that F24 break virt-manager spread? This issue is affecting all italian virt-manager users.

thanks

There was another instance in the file of the same issue that was missed, I fixed it manually

FWIW I also filed a zanata bug to catch this type of issue: https://zanata.atlassian.net/browse/ZNTA-1212

Working on it

virt-manager-1.4.0-3.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-9dbdf1caaa

Waiting for virt-manager-common-1.4.0-3.fc24, if you running dnf upgrade virt-manager-common does not yet provide you the updated package, a quick workaround is to remove the faulty translation file:

# rm /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/virt-manager.mo

thanks Cole for your quick help and for spotting another similar issue.

cheers
