[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
AFAICT, this topic was thoroughly considered by the desktop team a couple of years ago, and it ended up in the decision to support full language support in live sessions for the biggest languages, but not for the rest. Please see bug #1520278. So this bug report is a "Won't Fix" candidate IMO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to a duplicate bug report (43918). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 Title: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/42109/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I don't think so, however, I have yet to see any live distro that does what was quoted here. Apart from the fact that translations will always fall short from complete in whatever language, the majority of "nerds & power users" will use English as default language. I would say: Close the matter.

Another solution would be to use Squashfs LZMA, this should increase the live cd capacity by up to 25% leaving plenty of room for lang packs, and maybe even gimp and aptitude ;-) ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (43918). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
I've tried with polish language in 10.04 beta1 ISO, but still no luck - all elements are in english, except the date and ubiquity installation icon name on the desktop. Installed languages panel shows that polish has neither the "translations" nor the "spellchecking and writing aids" components. In this windows I can see that only: - bengali, spanish castilian, german, portugal and xhosa have translations (no other components) - english has both "translation" and "spellchecking and writing aids" components -- LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It's still the same problem with Karmic alpha6. I can confirmed this is a bad experience to select a language at boot time and end up with english when you're at Gnome.

[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
Note my updates at the spec https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/better-desktop-cd- language-support Basically the exact title of this bug is the only thing that is left of a bigger array of problems. The earlier problems, not getting one's language even after installing, were bigger ones. The developer of the installer has endorsed guiding the user to install missing language support either during installation (if Internet connection is available) or after installation (if the user didn't enable Internet connection before installation, which is quite common since it isn't hinted anywhere). I personally still think it wouldn't be unreasonable to offer language support downloading even before the installation start, and additionally offering to restart GNOME to put them into use. Maybe a dialog at the time user arrives at the desktop but some other language than English was selected in the boot menu - whether one wants to use the Live CD in local language by connecting to Internet and downloading support, or (the recommended) using the Live CD as is as a quick functionality glance and proceed later to the always localized installer. If assuming Internet connectivity is not too much, this would avoid the much greater hassle of providing tens of different Ubuntu CDs all with different language sets. -- LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
Re: [Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
Hi Przemysław, Learning still... I am cuurently downloading it. However not everyone has the ability to boot the PC from a DVD. Therefore, in order to demonstrate I need a CD that simply starts in Dutch but that is what I now have created with the UCK package. Thanks for pointing this out to me.

[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
Created the ISO, works flawlessly. Mind you: If only one language is chosen, that language shows up in the menu. You have the ability to pick more. I tried Dutch and Esperanto and those two remained under the F2 key. Started the Live CD in Dutch and all dialogues were Dutch, except: Add/Remove programs is in Dutch but the listed items were "Alles" (Dutch) but then again "Accessories","Education","Games","Graphics","Internet","Office","Other","Programming","Sound and Video","System Tools","Universal Access" all still remained in English. This, again, is the bug I have reported before. Despite that the language chosen is correct, this menu item persistently produces English. Applications I have tested so far (Office, some games, some utilities, Firefox and Evolution were all in Dutch as is a large part of the helpfile. -- LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
But I did a search... found out that there is a package called UCK and that with it, a customised version can be created in any supported language. Of course I will build a Dutch one, test it and use it on the occasions that I have to proof that Ubuntu is fun to use and works in our native language! Unfortunately I do not have facilities to offer an ISO for download but I will report the outcome.

[Bug 42109] Re: LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen
Well, even in 9.04 "Jaunty" it still is the case. I know that in the past, the interfaces were in Dutch. If I installed for example 8.04 and 8.10 part of the interface was still English, for example the add/remove programs. I reported that as a bug. I also have upgraded one installation from 7.04 onward. Then the particular menu was and stayed Dutch. From now on demonstrating, I will only use an installed version that shows my native language and not the live CD for I know that many more people than the average nerd will think possible, is afraid of using English. Apart from that I think that many experienced users (specifically IT people) tend to stick to English "As that is understood by everybody" Well I am an IT'er, I work all day with English software, I do understand the English version perfectly well and my Dutch colleagues disagree for they all use Linux in English, still I prefer to use all software at home in Dutch. If this calls for localised ISO's, so be it. If they do exist on specific mirrors, please point to them so that demonstration CD's can be created in the preferred native language. -- LiveCD session doesn't provide fully translated interfaces according to selected language on booting screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
