Hallo! I can't bring OOo to show german menus. I remember, that this was possible some time ago.
It seems that the wrapper does all the nessesary things to enable german locales (layer file has de-DE, all locale environment variables in /usr/bin/openoffice are set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and the packages are installed. /usr/bin/openoffice: --8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<-- [...] if [ -n "$LC_ALL" ]; then echo "first" LOCALE="$LC_ALL" echo $LOCALE # OOo doesn't understand LC_ALL, so set LANG LANG="$LC_ALL" echo $LANG elif [ -n "$LANG" ]; then echo "second" LOCALE="$LANG" echo $LOCALE elif [ -n "$LC_MESSAGES" ]; then echo "third" LOCALE="$LC_MESSAGES" LANG="$LC_MESSAGES" echo $LOCALE echo $LANG else echo "last" LOCALE="en_US" echo $LOCALE fi [...] LANG=$LOCALE export LANG echo "starting up with $LANG" exec "/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice" "$@" [...] --8<---------:- snip -:---------8<---------:- snip -:---------8<-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ openoffice second [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] de-DE Starting configuration import into user data .. .. importing layer file:///tmp/oooLocale.XXXXij1jVv - succeeded starting up with [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ COLUMNS=180 dpkg -l |grep openoffice |cut -c 0-80 ii openoffice.org 1.1.0-2 ii openoffice.org-bin 1.1.0-2 ii openoffice.org-debian-files 1.1.0-2+1 ii openoffice.org-gnome 1.1.0-2 ii openoffice.org-help-de 1.1+20030814-2 ii openoffice.org-help-en 1.1+20030814-3 ii openoffice.org-hyphenation-de 20030813-1 ii openoffice.org-l10n-de 1.1.0-2 ii openoffice.org-l10n-en 1.1.0-2 ii openoffice.org-mimelnk 1.1.0-2 rc openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-de 20020701-6 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ locale [EMAIL PROTECTED] LC_CTYPE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_NUMERIC="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_TIME="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_COLLATE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_MONETARY="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_MESSAGES=C LC_PAPER="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_NAME="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_ADDRESS="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_TELEPHONE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_MEASUREMENT="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_IDENTIFICATION="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LC_ALL= [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ There is also no change after a complete 'rm -r .openoffice .sversion' or changing the language settiongs via Tools|Options|Language Settings|Language|Locale Settings... from 'default' to 'German'. I didn't find anything in the BTS or on the gmane newsgroup, but I can't believe that I'm the first to notice this. Did I miss any settings? Jan
