Hi,
I think we got an interesting fact here:
On my PowerPC MacMini, it works, too, like on your PowerPC Mac.
So the issue might be platform dependent.
The output of locale is as expected, all variables set to
de_DE.UTF-8. locale -a outputs the expected list of supported
locales, which include de_DE.UTF-8.
I had a look at /usr/share/locale, but I can't see anything wrong
here. The LC_COLLATE file is binary, so I have no clue what it means.
But I diffed it against the same file on my PowerPC MacMini, and they
are identical.
Can anyone else with a Intel Mac confirm this behaviour?
Just execute
export LANG=en_US
export LC_ALL=en_US
# start any GTK application, open a file chooser dialog, and check
if the sorting is correct (maybe try it with different directories).
Any ideas on how to proceed?
Thanks
Rolf

Hi,
@Yves
I've never seen the Gtk-Warning below, though I am using
"de_DE.UTF-8". My open file dialog of Gnucash also shows everything
in alphabetical order. Something else must be wrong.
@Rolf, as you are using an Intel-Mac and I am sitting on a PowerPC:
What's in your /usr/share/locale/ ? That seems to be the place
where GTK-apps get their localization stuff (I was able to fix
Gnucash's missing EURO-Sign (€) by editing /usr/share/locale/
de_DE.UTF-8/LC_MONETARY. ) . What happens if you type "locale" and
"locale -a" in a terminal?
@all If GTK-apps read their language specific settings from usr/
share/locale, what is /opt/local/share/locale used for ????
Best Regards, Peter

Hi
first of all, any gtk app will kindly tell you that :
Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback C locale.
And the only way of dealing with many problems is indeed to avoid
localisation.
But I do use LANG=fr and nothing else (no _CA, no LC_ALL) and many
things do work quite fine, including gimp.
