I realize now that the comparison with the kernel was wrong. The kernel output can be hidden from the user. But GRUB is interactive by design. My main concern is the size of the files we install in /boot/grub. It's approaching one megabyte already, without the localization. That's why I'm trying to avoid a large number of *.mo files in /boot/grub. On the other hand, incorporating a dictionary into grub.cfg would be equivalent to having just one set of strings under /boot/grub. But we can achieve the same by having one *.mo file in /boot/grub. I agree, using gettext is a more solid approach technically. But installing all *.mo files to /boot/grub would be an overkill in many cases. I think copying the file for the current language should be enough. The same language should be specified in grub.cfg when it's generated. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
