Hi, if I understand it correctly, then the Laptop version shows correct text, but the linux box does not. The LC_MESSAGES matter here and it's the same on both machines. This is the first time I see the Flatpak version showing the localized text better than the native version (there used to be bugs about the localization not working in the Flatpak version). You can install the Flatpak version on the other machine and it should work the same as on yours, the sandbox is supposed to work like that. Just note that the sandbox has its caveats (search for Flatpak in this mailing list and you'll get an idea), but you need to check what will work and what not for your use case. Though I still do not understand why the native version doesn't work, and why only partially. Unless Ubuntu modifies the translations. I do not know whether they do. [1] Getting the /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/evolution.mo (in Flatpak it's under /app/share/....) and replace with it the one on the other machine might do the trick, until the machine updates the evolution package to the newer version and replaces the fil. There can be a similar evolution.mo file in 'it_IT' directory (instead of in 'it'), but that won't be from evolution itself, at least as I understand how those things work, guessing they work similarly in the Ubuntu. Bye, Milan [1] In fact, I cannot find which sub-package has the translation data. This Ubuntu world is an unknown thing to me. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/3.36.3-0ubuntu1 _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
