Bug#398615: [Kicad-devel] Bug#398615: kicad: Cannot set locales
I've just tested building against wx 2.8 for another bug, and checked if this bug is still an issue. The situation is improved, but not quite perfect. If the kicad language selection is set to Default it starts up in French fine with fr_CH.UTF-8 as the locale (and no other French ones installed). The odd thing is if you manually select French from the menu it fails. Anyway, it does allow you to have French gui with your choice of locale, so I think wx 2.8 will solve your problem. Unfortunately 2.8 isn't in Debian yet, but as soon as it is we'll rebuild against it.

Bug#398615: [Kicad-devel] Bug#398615: kicad: Cannot set locales
From: Didier Raboud [EMAIL PROTECTED] Well.. I use fr_CH.UTF-8 normally, so it was the only one defined in locales. If I reconfigure locales to generate fr_CH.ISO-8859-1, it does not work, but with fr_FR.ISO-8859-1 (letting fr_CH.UTF-8 as default), it does work. Ok. I had seen this problem myself, because I only had en_GB.UTF-8, so to test with french I just installed the most basic french option in the list, which as you have seen appears to work fine. I've now tried the one you specified and I can confirm it doesn't work for me either. But as with fr_CH.UTF-8 it works for each and every program, it is still a bug for me, as it should even work. I agree. However it doesn't appear to be a bug in kicad, it looks like it's a problem with wxWidgets. The code used in Kicad is the same regardless of the language selected, and it's the wx code that appears to be dependant on your system locales. I'll have a play this evening and see if there is anything I can do to get around this problem, but I suspect there isn't. At least there is a workaround. Btw, do you have any other programs installed that use wx that you can switch into french with only fr_CH locale available?

Bug#398615: [Kicad-devel] Bug#398615: kicad: Cannot set locales
Kicad is unable to use the locales (thus they are in the package). It always (and with each component) reports me : Cannot set locale to 'fr_FR' Do you have the french locale available on your system? I get the same error if I try to switch to french when I only have the gb locale. If I dpkg-reconfigure locales and enable fr_FR.ISO-8859-1, then I am able to select the french locale in kicad.
