For building the language-specific DB on demand, I've sketched a progress window. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#Launching> I'm not sure of this presentation, though. Embedding the progress display in the USC window (basically replacing the usual launch spinner with a determinate progress bar) would be more elegant, because it would involve fewer windows. But it might lead people to be more frustrated with USC itself.
In any case, generating the DB on launch would be the last resort, used only if the app-install-data-ubuntu and language pack triggers haven't already produced a database in your current language. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of UBUNTU - AL - BR, which is subscribed to Package Descriptions for Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434601 Title: Package descriptions etc display only in the language of whoever installed the OS Status in Package Descriptions for Ubuntu (to make translation easy): New Status in Ubuntu Translations: Triaged Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: software-store if the cache was geneated with a english locale and then is used by a user with german locale, the cache will be english only. this needs to be fixed by storting a language attribute in the cache and forcing a re-generation (or a generation of a new one) if they don't match.
