From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Description of problem: Hi, The French translation of gdm: /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/gdm-2.4.mo translates Korean to: Koréen That's wrong. Instead it should be: Coréen Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.4.4.5-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Just have look at the language menu under a French locale. Additional info:
The language menu of gdm displays available languages using two columns. The left column displays language items in the system-wide default language. The right column displays language items in the item's language. For example: French Français The translation for Greek is missing: Greek It should be: Greek Eλληνικά
The French translation of gdm: /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/gdm-2.4.mo translates Latvian to: Latvian That's wrong. Instead it should be: Letton
The language menu of gdm displays available languages using two columns. The left column displays language items in the system-wide default language. The right column displays language items in the item's language. For example: French Français The translation for Chinese (simplified) and Thai doesn't look good under a French locale. The font used by gdm seems to be lacking some Chinese and Thai characters. Sorry, I can't provide screenshots, but here is how it looks like: +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ Thai | 0 0 | | 0 0 | | 0 0 | | E 4 | | B 7 | | C 2 | +-----+ +-----+ +-----+ | | +-+-+ --+-- +-----+ +-----+ Chinois simplifié | | | ^ / ( | 7 B | | 4 F | ) +-+-+ X | 8 0 | | 5 3 | | / \ +-----+ +-----+ Hopefully you'll understand what I mean...
Some additional information on my settings: $ cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en:fr_FR.UTF-8:fr_FR:fr:de_DE.UTF-8:de_DE:de:el_GR.UTF-8:el_GR:el:ko_KR.UTF-8:ko_KR:ko" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" $
I've filed a bug report on the Gnome site about the wrong translations: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131282 There's still the problem with the default font not showing Thai and Chinese glyphs. Also I'm not sure why "Eλληνικά" is missing, it's there in the gdm-2.5.90.0 sources, maybe it has been added after gdm-2.4.4.5. If not, that's maybe a font problem as well.
