Re: en_GB in OLPC OS 12.1.0
On behalf of the kids that I test with ... I'd prefer that we not include en_AU at all if we can't also include en_GB, but I don't know if we have the ability to configure fallbacks in Sugar. If we can't configure fallbacks, we should exclude en_AU and languages for which a specified fallback is necessary. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I am only really asking because you have gone to the trouble (thanks!) of including en_AU, which in its current state is only useful if there's an en_GB fallback. This actually makes sense, since en_AU and en_GB are probably 99% identical. Sridhar ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

If I am properly parsing the thread, it seems that the fallback is broken when there are multiple fallbacks: the intermediate language is not picked up? -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

This actually makes sense, since en_AU and en_GB are probably 99% identical. Ok, so there's a bug or error in there somewhere. Sounds worth pursuing but perhaps not high pri -- we do have some burning topics at this time. Can you file it in dev.laptop.org, with a bit more fleshing out? I assume fallback works correctly when en_GB is there, have you tested this recently? thanks! m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
en_GB in OLPC OS 12.1.0
OLPC OS 12.1.0 is looking good! I noticed that en_US and en_AU are available. We have our language fallbacks set to en_AU;en_GB;en_US to overcome the lack of strings in en_AU. Would it be possible to have en_GB included by default as well?
