Description Jiri Hnidek 2017-12-04 21:30:46 UTC

Description of problem:
When user do not use main version of locale (e.g. "de_DE.UTF-8" is not used), but user is e.g. from Austria and code of locale is "de_AT.UTF-8), then localization for Germany language is ignored.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager: 1.20.7-1.el7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set environment variable LC_ALL (use supported locale)
[root@server ~]# export LC_ALL="de_DE.UTF-8"

2. Execute subscription-manager with some subcommand:
[root@server ~]# subscription-manager identity 
Systemidentität: e99aa52a-9d0b-453f-aa5c-8cd8da7919d3 <=== translated string
Name: centos7.subman.example.com
Organisationsname: Admin Owner
Organisations-ID: admin

3. Set environment variable LC_ALL (use some variant of supported locale, e.g. code for Austria)
[root@server ~]# export LC_ALL="de_AT.UTF-8"

4. Execute subscription-manager with some subcommand
[root@server ~]# subscription-manager identity

Actual results:
String of output are not translated:

system identity: e99aa52a-9d0b-453f-aa5c-8cd8da7919d3
name: centos7.subman.example.com
org name: Admin Owner
org ID: admin


Expected results:
Translated strings (same as in step 2)

Note: looks like we have zanata misconfigured. We can probably for German, use de, instead of de_DE... then things will probably work properly. (same for Spanish, possibly same for Portugese?) Katello uses es, de, pt-BR...

commit 8b512b06526ed3387fa0c3481670c88bab15b9d1
Author: Kevin Howell <khowell>
Date:   Tue Jan 30 16:44:08 2018 -0500

    Update zanata config
    
    We're removing the project version, as the release nanny tooling has
    been updated to specify --project-version based on the latest releaser.
    
    The configured languages are also tweaked.
    
    Also, the zanata instance we're using has changed.
