Hello,

I've come across a pretty weird problem:

At first, I noticed that the "open file" dialog of Gimp didn't show files and directories in alphabetical order (I clicked on the column header a few times to make sure that the dialog actually try to sort by file name).
I also noticed that two menus were missing (skript-fu and python-fu).
As that time, my locale was set to de_DE.UTF-8.

Then I changed LANG/LC_ALL to C. Suddenly the order of files in the "open file" dialog was correct, and Gimp displayed the two missing menus. It seems that of all locales, only C works. de_DE (without the UTF-8 part) didn't work, and neither did en_US or en_GB.

I could find the same issue in gnucash. Only with the C locale did the "open file" dialog display files in the correct order.

My MacPorts packages are quite up-to-date (I did a full upgrade yesterday after finding the problem, but upgrading didn't change anything).

Does anyone have some ideas, or hints of how I could continue narrowing this down?

Hi

first of all, any gtk app will kindly tell you that :

Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback C locale.

And the only way of dealing with many problems is indeed to avoid localisation.

But I do use LANG=fr and nothing else (no _CA, no LC_ALL) and many things do work quite fine, including gimp.
