Actual Results: The app is unusable. Expected Results: Menus should use some understandable text Additional info: I ve downloaded and compiled i386.src rpm of gedit 2.0.2 but this strange bug still exists. But if started with env LANG=en_US gedit %U or env LANG=en_US.utf8 gedit %U the labels are ok.

The problem is perhaps a lack of Turkish fonts. Is this problem specific to gedit or does it happen with all text on the system? If some applications display Turkish correctly, which applications are they?
From the screen shots it also looks possible that the turkish translations are simply in the wrong encoding.
well i have just found out that the po file that's on gnome2.0 gtp site is in TAMIL languge instead of Turkish. also this file is included with gedit2.0.2-5 src rpm I ve just posted a bug report to gtp also.

I'm assuming this should be fixed in our newer gedit packages in rawhide. If not, get the fix into GNOME upstream translation project, and we'll get the newer gedit packages with the fix.
