Package: debconf Version: 1.4.30.13 Severity: minor Hi!
I have following locale settings on my system: LANG=sk_SK LC_CTYPE="sk_SK" LC_NUMERIC="sk_SK" LC_TIME=C LC_COLLATE=C LC_MONETARY="sk_SK" LC_MESSAGES=C LC_PAPER="sk_SK" LC_NAME="sk_SK" LC_ADDRESS="sk_SK" LC_TELEPHONE="sk_SK" LC_MEASUREMENT="sk_SK" LC_IDENTIFICATION="sk_SK" LC_ALL= Environment variables LANG, LC_TIME, LC_COLLATE and LC_MESSAGES are set. Despite of LC_MESSAGES settings, debconf displays slovak templates (if available). However, buttons like "yes" and "no" are shown correctly, they are not translated. After setting LC_MESSAGES to sk_SK, those buttons have slovak labels too. Experiment with LANG set to C and LC_MESSAGES to sk_SK results in not translated template and translated buttons (some characters not displayed correctly, due to LC_CTYPE being C too). Further experiments showed that debconf is probably using LC_CTYPE instead of LC_MESSAGES to choose template langauge, which (I believe) is not correct: LANG=C LC_MESSAGES=sk_SK LC_CTYPE=sk_SK dpkg-reconfigure <pkg> -> slovak template and button labels LANG=C LC_CTYPE=sk_SK dpkg-reconfigure <pkg> -> slovak template, english button labels I also tried with sk_SK.ISO-8859-2 instead of sk_SK with same results. So this problem does not seem to be related to locale aliases problem described in #232044.
