Description Mihkel Tõnnov 2012-12-14 12:01:46 UTC
The .desktop files in /opt/lodev3.6/share/xdg (from package "lodev3.6" or "libreoffice3.6") only contain localisation sections for Zulu, no other translations are included for some reason.

Also, the Unity strings "New Document", "New Spreadsheet", etc. (which are included in the same files) are untranslated (or even untranslatable).

Confirmed with DEB x86 and x86-64; the Windows build seems to be unaffected. Can't test the Mac builds.

This was a regression in 3.6.0.0.beta3 (I just tested, 3.6.0.0.beta2 still seemed to have everything it should) and the problem is still present in 3.6.4.3.

(I noticed this only now because previously I had the desktop-integration from 3.5 branch installed.)
Comment 1 Mihkel Tõnnov 2013-01-13 14:36:14 UTC
Translations still missing in 4.0.
Comment 2 Mihkel Tõnnov 2013-01-13 14:36:48 UTC
I mean, 4.0.0 RC 1.
Comment 3 Michael Meeks 2013-02-14 09:14:58 UTC
Andras - any chance you can look into this one ? :-) Much as we love Zulu - it seems like an odd regression ...
Comment 4 Andras Timar 2013-02-14 15:18:12 UTC
regression from b9c376111b7ed3137d7ff72286888e7373487142 - 	rewrite a horrible perl script to saner form ;-)
