Re: [Cooker] Why is Mandrake ignoring Turkish support ?
I think the first thing to do is to build a patched kde-i18n-tr package, to put it in updates, and to write an errata.

My late messages are being ignored. And now there is no kde3-i18n-tr.mdk.rpm for mandrake, neither in cooker nor at the kde servers. Still the package is there for other distributions like redhat.

Thank you. But it never made it to the public, neither in errata or else. I have been doing it with something similiar here, for Turkish users. CC> But it has not been integrated into 8.2... Thats what I am keen on. It is something very important, and since it is a bug of 8.1, and I reported it several times (before beta as you said also) it never made it to 8.2 It is normal that there are bugs in 8.1, but it should not be ordinary, that these are not corrected in 8.2, several months and several reports after.

All that is needed is to replace the mo files in the rpm, should not be that hard. I had sent by mail, sent an url to download, I don't know what else I should do. Also now, there is no i18n for KDE3, and the console is broken too. People want to install their mandrake and read/write comfortably without working on scripts or patches or extra rpms.

for KDE, the problem is known since far before the first beta of 8.2 Pablo had posted a patch for 8.1 in the i18n list, that I've corrected and sent again to the i18n list several months ago. But it has not been integrated into 8.2... The problem is the following : the .po locale files are coded in unicode (utf8) but their header indicate a wrong iso code. The patch consists only in editing all those files and replacing iso8859-9 by utf8, and also in /usr/share/locale/tr/charset I join the small script that corrects that automatically.

[Cooker] Why is Mandrake ignoring Turkish support ?
It has been more than 2 months, that I have been reporting to several mandrake people about what is wrong, and how to fix it, but nothing has been done, 8.2 came out broken, and Turkish does not work neither in console nor in kde (both 2 and 3). My late messages are being ignored. And now there is no kde3-i18n-tr.mdk.rpm for mandrake, neither in cooker nor at the kde servers. Still the package is there for other distributions like redhat. Why ? PS: I am sending this again, as it never made it to the list for about a day... Regards, Onur Kucuk _ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
