--------------------------------------+--------------------
We have a Django project in a nested module structure, it looks something
like this:
company.app.something.django_project
So our project-level locale is in
company/app/something/django_project/locale/
And settings.py is:
company/app/something/django_project/settings.py
The documentation states:
From: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/i18n/translation/#how-
django-discovers-translations
3. Then, it looks for a locale directory in the project directory, or
more accurately, in the directory containing your settings file.
But the code takes the first level of the module structure:
See:
https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/tags/releases/1.3.1/django/utils/translation/__init__.py#L48
Therefore the locale directory is being looked for here:
company/locale/
There is a workaround in that the path can be explicitly set in
settings.LOCALE_PATHS.
