Description Luan Vitor Simião Oliveira 2025-04-20 17:47:40 UTC
languages that have country variations like es-AR,pt-PT and PT-BR have localized actions on the desktop file, but they don't work on plasma because they are using "Name[sv-SE]" instead of "Name[sv_SE]"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set system language to pt-BR or some other language with country variations.
2. on plasma desktop, right click the chromium icon in the launcher.
Actual Results:
the new window action will be in english

Expected Results:
the actions should be on system locale

Does it work for you if you do symlink like below?

   cd /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/locales && ln -s pt-BR.pak pt_BR.pak

localization inside chromium works without that.
the problem this issue is about is on the desktop file at /usr/share/applications/chromium-browser.desktop, the localized names under desktop action of "new-window" and "new-private-window" are using - instead of _

for example:
line 223 is "Name[pt-BR]=Nova janela" but it should be "Name[pt_BR]=Nova janela"
likewise, line 331 should be "Name[pt_BR]=Nova janela privativa"

Comment 3 Than Ngo 2025-07-22 13:10:00 UTC
It should be fixed in next build.
Thank you!
