Just wanted to follow up if you have any timeframe on rebuilding the package for RHEL4. It would be great to include the fixed tamil translation in because tamil is one of our official supported languages. Thanks!
This bug has been assigned to component "gal". Is this file for the "gal" package, or for "libgal2"? Evolution uses libgal2.
Removing from FC3Target tracker (bug #123268); adding to RHEL4 i18n tracker (bug #137149).
I think it is for gal package. [snip] # translation of ta.po to Tamil # Tamil Translation of gal.pot # Copyright (C) 2001, 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc. # Dinesh Nadarajah <n_dinesh>, 2001. # Jayaradha N <jaya.com>, 2004. #
I can't find anything that actually uses the "gal" package. I've built a new version of the libgal2 package for RHEL 4 (libgal2-2:2.2.3-4) which contains the new ta.po file from the attachment in comment #1. I checked upstream (GNOME) CVS and the same file has already been committed there (in the "gnome-2-8" branch of the "gal" module). The new package is in dist-4E-HEAD, so it will need moving.
To test the libgal2 package, try running Evolution e.g.: LANG=ta_IN.UTF-8 evolution Strings from libgal2 package are used in the following places: (i) in the Mail component, try right-clicking on the message list header; the popup menu has various options for adding/removing columns; the dialogs presented here (and hence the strings) are from libgal2 (although the column headings themselves are from Evolution) (ii) in the Contacts component, try opening a contact, and clicking on the Categories button; in the next dialog try clicking on the Edit Master Category List button; I believe that all the strings you'll see here are from libgal2

Thanks for the Test Case, Dave. :) Unfortunately, I dont understand tamil as well, so I'm cc'ing sarah, hopefully she will give me a hand on this. Sarah, Based on Dave's Test Case, I have attached 2 screenshots in this bug. Could you please ask the translator to verify if the translation is correct? Thanks.

Tamil translator is on leave. I'm unable to verify it at this stage. Sarah
Verified with both FC4 and EL4, the encoding looks good.
