OOPS... when upgrading the initscripts to 6.91-9 I get: cp: cannot stat: '/usr/share/locale/fi_FI@euro/LC_MESSAGES/SYS_LC_MESSAGES': No such file or directory. I know that that directory/file does not exist, and the reason it searches there seems to be because of: LC_MESSAGES=fi_FI@euro bout shouldn't '/usr/share/i18n/locales/fi_FI@euro tell the system that 'fi_FI@euro' actually is fi_FI.ISO-8859-15? Or am I way off...? and if I change the i18n to: --- cut --- SYSFONTACM=iso15 LC_CTYPE=fi_FI LANGUAGE=fi_FI:fi LC_MONETARY=fi_FI LC_COLLATE=fi_FI LC_NUMERIC=fi_FI SYSFONT=lat1-16 LC_TIME=fi_FI LANG=fi_FI LC_MESSAGES=fi_FI --- cut --- then I loose ISO-8859-15 for the translator so wich one(s) of theese read from: '/usr/share/i18n/' and wich one(s) from: '/usr/share/locale/'? Or should I just make a symlink from '/usr/share/locale/fi_FI@euro/ ' to '/usr/share/locale/fi_FI.ISO-8859-15' ? Thomas *** Tämä viesti on VirusTarkistettu INRITEL OY:n postipalvelimella!! ***
