So, I guess something's really off. Could you check whether in both case the file in /home/eddy/.local/share/desktop-directories/menu-xdg are correctly localized ?

Hello Eddy, Actually you should have a file ~/.config/menus/debian-menu.menu which start by /home/eddy/.local/share/desktop-directories/menu-xdg which tell GNOME to look for directory files in /home/eddy/.local/share/desktop-directories/menu-xdg How does look yours ?

Is the file ~/.local/share/menu-xdg/desktop-directories/menu-xdg/debian-apps.directory also properly localised ? What is the language setting of GNOME on your system ? Could you try another user on your system ? The bad news is now I have 2.1.38 installed and still the menu is not localized. The good news is that I have found how to make it work. It seems that GNOME doesn't look into the subdirectories of the ~/.local/share/desktop-directories directory to look for .directory files: I did the following and now the Debian menu is entirely localized: 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/.local/share/desktop-directories $ for I in menu-xdg/* ; do echo "$I"; ln $I `basename $I` ; done 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/.local/share/desktop-directories $ ll total 384 -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1481 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-data-management.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1293 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1029 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-editors.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1141 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-emulators.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1486 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-file-management.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1084 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-graphics.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 804 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-net.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1375 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-net-file-transfer.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1369 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network-communication.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1028 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1379 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network-file-transfer.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1206 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network-monitoring.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1321 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network-web-browsing.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1090 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-network-web-news.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 982 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-office.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1251 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-programming.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1031 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-science.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1260 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-science-mathematics.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 973 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-shells.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 916 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-sound.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1425 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-administration.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 972 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1091 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-hardware.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1759 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-language-environment.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1205 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-monitoring.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1656 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-package-management.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1093 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-system-security.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1642 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-terminal-emulators.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 860 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-text.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 917 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-tools.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 916 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-video.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1035 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-applications-viewers.directory -rw-r--r-- 1 eddy eddy 1298 2007-10-10 01:53 Debian.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 967 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games-action.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 966 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games-blocks.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 904 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1028 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games-puzzles.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1190 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games-simulation.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1078 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-games-strategy.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 849 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-help.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 958 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-screen.directory -rw-r--r-- 2 eddy eddy 1028 2008-03-12 15:34 debian-screen-l

My point was that the job of update-menus stops at creating this file. Since this file is properly localised the problem is not with update-menus. Is the file ~/.local/share/menu-xdg/desktop-directories/menu-xdg/debian-apps.directory also properly localised ? What is the language setting of GNOME on your system ? Could you try another user on your system ? Cheers, -- Bill. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Imagine a large red swirl here.

Maybe: I never tested what happens if you remove some menu .mo file for languages listed in /etc/menu-methods/lang.h. I can't thing of any other problems than localepurge removing root configured locale. Could you make sure you run dpkg as root with valid locale ? Either login as root or su - and do locale ls --help update-menus -v cat /var/lib/menu-xdg/desktop-directories/menu-xdg/debian-apps.directory Cheers, Bill.

Bug#408387: the Debian menu is (not consistently) localized

Hello Eddy, thanks for your bug report. First there is a known issue with menu/glibc: if it is run under C locale or invalid locale, then the GNOME/KDE will not be translated. This can happen if you use a program to become root that discard locale. If it is not the issue here, I would need you to check whether menu-xdg is installed and whether the file /var/lib/menu-xdg/desktop-directories/menu-xdg/debian-apps.directory is correctly i18nized. Also I would like to see ls -l /etc/menu-methods/ and update-menus -v (as root) > I am also using GNOME in Etch on another system which at the moment > shows the Debian menu localized, but I remember I've seen it "slip" > before. > > I tried running update-menus both as root and as a regular user, but the > menu wasn't updated (well, the translation didn't appear). Please run update-menus --remove as a regular user. Cheers, Bill. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#408387: the Debian menu is (not consistently) localized
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Package: menu Version: 2.1.33 Severity: serious Justification: localization is a release target Hello, I am using an Etch system with GNOME and I have seen that the Debian menu is not localized in Romanian, although a translation exists. I am also using GNOME in Etch on another system which at the moment shows the Debian menu localized, but I remember I've seen it "slip" before. I tried running update-menus both as root and as a regular user, but the menu wasn't updated (well, the translation didn't appear). $ LANG=C apt-cache policy metacity metacity: Installed: 1:2.14.5-2 Candidate: 1:2.14.5-2 Version table: *** 1:2.14.5-2 0 900 http://localmirror etch/main Packages -10 http://localmirror sid/main Packages 900 http://ftp.ro.debian.org etch/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status (The localmirror is a clean Debian mirror with nothing else) So the problem is that the menu does not seem to be respecting the locale selected via the LANG environment variable.
