Description Igor Miletic 2005-12-19 18:11:34 UTC
Please enable Serbian translation in system-config-bind.

The locale(s) for Serbian are

sr_CS.UTF-8 (default, cyrillic script, available in CVS)
sr_CS.UTF-8@Latn (po files not yet available in CVS, still awaiting to be added
to ACL)

More info on these locales can be found here if needed:
http://srpski.org/locale/

The keyboard for sr_CS is "srp" in XKB. The latin locale sr_CS@Latn uses
"srp(latin)".

The timezone for Serbia and Montenegro is GMT+0100.

I noticed the updated 'sr.po' file in system-config-bind-4.0.0/po/sr.po -
this is now shipped in system-config-bind-4.0.0-33_FC5 - is this what you mean 
by 'enable Serbian translation' ? The translation has always been enabled, but
until now probably has not been correct. Please try out the new version - thanks!


Comment 2 Igor Miletic 2005-12-20 01:31:32 UTC
Yes,
that was what I ment.

Thank you.

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2005-12-20 03:02:18 UTC
From User-Agent: XML-RPC

system-config-bind-4.0.0-33 has been pushed for FC3, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2005-12-20 03:02:42 UTC
From User-Agent: XML-RPC

system-config-bind-4.0.0-33_FC4 has been pushed for FC4, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

I still can't see the translated sr messages in these updated packages.

Comment 6 Jason Vas Dias 2006-01-09 23:23:58 UTC
OK, I've had another look at this issue.

Running system_config_bind with :
  # LC_ALL=sr_CS LANG=sr_CS system-config-bind
The ONLY translations seen are those done by libglade for the glade generated
buttons - no other translations, done by libgdk, are seen, and these messages
appear :
  'Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib'
  'Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers'

It appears this may be an Xlib bug. The libX11 package's 
  /usr/share/X11/locale/{locale.alias,locale.dir}
contains information for the sr_YU locale (which no longer exists in glibc!)
not the sr_CS locale, which is the only sr_* locale listed by 'locale -a'  .

So once libX11 contains locale information for sr_CS, not sr_YU, the Serbian
translations should appear.

Comment 8 Miloš Komarčević 2006-01-09 23:47:59 UTC
When I said that I can't see the translation, I guess I meant the problem might
be that there are still no /usr/share/locale/sr/LC_MESSAGES/ nor
/usr/share/system-config-bind/po/sr/LC_MESSAGES/ in
system-config-bind-4.0.0-34_FC5.noarch.rpm
Almost like they're not being built and shipped at all...

XOrg upstream should be ok AFAIK since other people have been working on our new
sr_CS locale support when the country code changed two years ago, other
translations show up fine so far...

Comment 9 Jason Vas Dias 2006-01-10 18:34:24 UTC
OK, sorry for the confusion - sr_* was missing from LINGUAS in the po/Makefile -
it is now added with system-config-bind-4.0.0-36* in FC5, FC4, and FC3 .

But I still get the messages from libgdm about Xlib not knowing about the sr_CS*
locales:
   $ LANG=sr_CS LC_ALL=sr_CS system-config-bind

   (system-config-bind:6517): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib

   (system-config-bind:6517): Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers

This comes from the XSupportsLocale Xlib function, which cannot find anything
about the sr_CS locale (it only has information for the sr_YU locale), so 
XSetLocaleModifiers cannot be invoked and no Input Method modifiers can be
set - I think this should still be rectified in Xlib, since the sr_YU locale
is defunct.

Comment 10 Miloš Komarčević 2006-01-11 21:28:29 UTC
After checking with local people in the know, it really looks like the sr_CS
issue was never brought up upstream in XFree86/XOrg, so thanks Jason for
spotting that.

The upstream bug report is here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5575



Comment 11 Mike A. Harris 2006-01-31 18:58:08 UTC
Thanks, we'll track the issue in the upstream bugzilla.
