Pavel mentioned this morning that translations didn't seem to be

Turned out that exceptions aren't being translated.

I'm not at all sure this patch does the right thing, so take it with a
grain of salt. What it does is translates the message before stuffing it
into the exception.

Note that this will also translate messages returned via XML-RPC so I
wonder if we need to force LANG to en_US.UTF-8 there.

In any case, this seems to fix the client side anyway. I'm open to
criticism on this one.

To test do something like:

$ kinit admin
$ export LANG=es_US.UTF-8
$ ipa user-add --first=Kermit --last=Frog kfrog
$ ipa user-add --first=Kermit --last=Frog kfrog

You should get a DuplicateEntry() response in Spanish.

nack.

While this patch works, it doesn't solve the problem at its root.

After some investigation I figured out, that functions initializing translations in ipalib/request.py are not called from anywhere. All the translation code in ipalib/request.py is currently deprecated in favor of ipalib/text.py. I'm preparing a patch, that removes the unused code and replaces references to it.
