can't set french language in Scratch editor

[Comète]

Hello,

i've set "Language=fr" in "~/.scratch.ini" but when i run scratch, i get a 
"File not found fr.po" window.

I've printed the list of files in scratch package with "pkg_info -L scratch" 
and "fr.po" is present in:

/usr/local/share/scratch/locale/

Any idea ?

Thanks a lot

Hi, what link did you make to fix the problem?

Problem is dirs hardcoded into the Scratch image.
This can be fixed by hand; I haven't found a way to do it automatically.
Attached is Smalltalk code and instructions.

Stu


Adjust Scratch to find language, example and help files.

$ mkdir myscratch && cd myscratch
$ cp /path/to/scratchadj.cs .
$ cp /usr/local/share/scratch/Scratch.image .
$ cp /usr/local/share/scratch/changes/Scratch.changes .
$ chmod u+w Scratch.image Scratch.changes
$ squeak Scratch.image

* Shift-click in the upper-right part of the "R" in the Scratch logo to bring 
up a menu
* Select "turn fill screen off"
* Click to the right of the Scratch frame to bring up World menu
* Select "open..." then "workspace" to bring up a Workspace
* Type in: (FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: 'scratchadj.cs') fileIn
* Press Alt-d to 'DoIt'
* Close the Workspace by clicking the "X" in the titlebar of the Workspace 
window
* Select "No" when prompted to save changes
* Shift-click in the upper-right part of the "R" in the Scratch logo to bring 
up a menu
* Select "save image for end user"
* Select "Yes" when prompted to save

$ rm Scratch.changes scratchadj.cs
$ chmod u-w Scratch.image

The image file is now adjusted and ready to use.
The changes file is optional.
The image file can be made read-only and placed elsewhere.

Forgot to attach the Scratch path fixup stuff to my last message.

sorry, i didn't see this part... A simple symbolic link was indeed the 
solution, a bit dirty but my son is happy with it ;)

Thanks again

According to the README

so there's an obvious dirty fix. A better fix would be to patch the
Scratch.image (but I don't know if it's possible as I don't know
squeak).
