RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

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...

    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.
