Minor locale problem in 2.9.2

2005-02-20 Thread Görkem Çetin
Hi
While compiling 2.9.2, in metacity module, it generated the following 
error (without the quotes)

/lib/libgthread-2.0.so -lpthread /root/garnome/lib/libglib-2.0.so 
/root/garnome/lib/libstartup-notification-1.so -lSM -lICE -lXrender

FYI.

Re: Kurdish - we give it a start

Hi Clytie, hi everybody,

thanks for the warm words. To translate software into Kurdish is a 
great challenge indeed. Although close to 40 Million people speak 
Kurdish, it could not develop well, because it has been forbidden in 
Turkey, where most Kurds live. Still it is not been taught at any 
state school - let alone university. So we have to create a wholly 
"new" computer terminology, which makes this task very difficult.




Is this your all - time behaviour, or what? You did the same rant on 
openoffice.org lists. Gnome-i18n list is not used for political 
purposes, and yet, what you have declared is not true: You have the 
minorities rights for Kurdish TV, Kurdish radio, and Kurdish education. 
There are many Kurdish education centers in south east of Turkey.


The other difficulties are, as you said, economical underdevelopment 
and little computer access. I am happy that the international free 
software community - and especially the GNOME supports all kinds of 
localization efforts. Because other players in the software market 



I don't know what other players think about the software players, maybe 
there are not enough Kurdish computer market to support this 
localization effort - but GNOME l10n/i18n team is here to help you, 
including GNOME Turkey. You are more than welcome and ask any kind of 
questions, even I'll try to find colleagues for you, provided that you 
stop asking people for sympathy with unfounded statements.


I will _not_ answer any of your irrelevant replies here: Please mail me 
directly if you have any questions regarding your political issues.


Best
Görkem
