Just "de" results in English, as does "fr". fr_FR is French however, fr_CH too, probably because French is spoken in Switzerland, because fr_DE is English again. On my old system (SuSE 7.2, now I have 9.2) just "de" worked. Since I don't know the *exact* locale on the destination computer, this means that I cannot distribute reliable German Texinfo manuals. And English only works because it's the fallback. The bottom line is that the locale is not supposed to be changed temporarily. ;-) > [...] > > However, "make" doesn't make those *.gmo files that are apparently > necessary for the translation.
