I mean most Linux programs. It had not penetrated my mind that winecfg actually ran under wine, while its look and feel should make that obvious... notepad.exe exhibits the same bug as winecfg. Anyway, it works fine for me, but I run 32-bit. I can reproduce this bug in my 32bit chroot. When you say it works for me, are all of the following conditions met? - /etc/locale.gen contains support for at least two languages A and B. - with LC_MESSAGES=A, LANG=B and LC_ALL unset, winecfg is in A - with LC_MESSAGES=B, LANG=A and LC_ALL unset, winecfg is in B (in my case A=en_GB.UTF-8 and B=fr_LU.UTF-8) -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I've just set up an amd64 partition to test on, and it also works fine there, apparently. My LANG is normally set to nb_NO.UTF-8. If I do: $ LC_MESSAGES=sv_SE.UTF-8 winecfg it talks Swedish, as expected. Also works with fr_FR.UTF-8, en_US.UTF-8, etc. Well, I just noticed that it seems it doesn't work with en_GB.UTF-8. Looks like winecfg's localized resources are inadvertently only defined for en_US, not for en_*, causing a fallback. I guess that's a bug, but it's not that LC_MESSAGES isn't respected. Just that en_US is the only English language winecfg knows... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Anyway, it works fine for me, but I run 32-bit. Perhaps it's a 64-bit issue? I've heard about cases where locales don't work properly in 32-bit apps on a 64-bit system... maybe you could check with a 32-bit locale binary or something. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
