Description Bjørn Are Hansen 2005-01-09 21:58:23 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5)
Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0

Description of problem:
Te norwegian bokm�l translation-files is placed in
/usr/share/locale/no/LC_MESSAGES/gaim.mo. This results in no
translation when bokm�l is selected locale. Copying the file to
/usr/share/locale/nb/LC_MESSAGES/gaim.mo results in a translated gaim.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gaim-1.1.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gaim with norwegian bokm�l locale. There is no translation.

ping upstream, is this still an issue?

Comment 2 Peter Lawler 2005-03-01 01:33:23 UTC
What's the relationship between no and nb? Would gaim need a new
translation?

Comment 3 Luke Schierer 2005-03-01 12:38:36 UTC
our translators tell us that there are 3 kinds of norwegian,
code nno, Norwegian Nynorsk, = nn
code nob, Bokm?l, Norwegian(someone didn't send me unicode), = nb
code nor, Norwegian, = no

the above from http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html

apparently Vietnam has something similar going on as well.

the Gnome translators are treating each of the above, nn, nb, and no,
as separate translations, so I would say that this is not a bug, and
that we simply do not have a nb translation and will not until someone
volunteers to do so. the submitter can contact me about being a
translator if he likes.
