Bug ID: 384451
Summary: systemsettings should understand yet-to-be-generated
locales
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.8.7
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_formats
Assignee: se...@kde.org
Reporter: gaetan.gilb...@skyskimmer.net
Target Milestone: ---
In system settings > regional settings > formats, it is possible to set any
locale even if it isn't present on the system. This can appear to work while
leading to random incomprehensible breakage (eg set LC_TIME to whatever,
reboot, see that the KDE clock respects it. However if the locale isn't
generated okular will fail to open files with non totally ASCII path like
é.pdf, mcomix will just crash on startup, etc)
The program should somehow remind the user to generate locales. Possibilities:
- display only generated locales (maybe with a toggle to display the rest as
well)
- display some warning when a non generated locale is chosen
- whatever you come up with
