The other option is to do what other projects are forced to do (Khmer
for example), create bi-lingual installers in which installation takes
place in English and then the software runs in the localised language
(and then you can switch between both languages).

There is still an issue with this that we have not found yet anybody to
solve. Once installation is finished, the locale of the application is
English, not the local language locale. It has to be changed by hand (we
have to do it in every single installation, and document it with every
CD). The solution seems to be spoofing the computer's locale (making OOo
believe that the local computer locale is the local language)... but the
solution of the issue is not even scheduled.

Hi Javier,

Why don't you simply left the installer strings in English in your
translation? I did not understand why you needed bi-lingual installers.

Because the installer still thinks that the language is Khmer, even if the strings are English. Maybe this can be changed in the encoding of the language of the installer, telling it that the encoding is for latin characters, but I do not remember such possibility when we went through this issue. It might also affect the installation.

Ingo Schmidt should be able to give a much better answer.

The bi-lingual installer is good for us, it helps the migration from MS Office in English.
