The problem boils down to this: I am using g_app_info_get_display_name() to look up the name of the app. This *should* take the current locale into account. Seems that this is broken.
I am not very knowledgeable on this, but it appears that the translations are split from the .desktop files out into some .cache files like /usr/share/applications/desktop.en_DK.utf8.cache. Assuming that this is right, the problem is really that this behaviour breaks glib, which would mean that all apps relying on GAppInfos are broken, in which case The Right Fix (TM) is to patch glib (or revert to the expected behaviour). -- doesn't display translated desktop names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601043 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
