Hi, Yesterday two bugs came to my attention. fdo#44208 - under Windows crash occurred when user selected Tools - Options in selected Indian locales fdo#45107 - under Windows garbage characters appeared at random places in selected Indian locales I suspected a font issue. Interestingly, these bugs are not reproducible on all systems, but at least I could reproduce them on clean Windows XP and clean Windows 7 64-bit. On my other Windows XP, which is 6 years old, and there are many fonts from different sources installed, the bugs were not reproducible.
I did not find how to fix the crash, but I found a workaround, and that also solved fdo#45107. In VCL.xcu I replaced the iso code of problematic Indian locales to language code only. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=82e0266b05dd53d0ce8b12bd5c76ae25872b87a9 I was too greedy, Fridrich fixed it after me: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=86bf32c487852f4e466b27320e3724266cb53dba I would like to have these commits in libreoffice-3-5, libreoffice-3-5-0, and libreoffice-3-4. These are rather serious issues, that make Indian localizations useless under Windows. Also, if somebody (Caolán?) knows how VCL.xcu works today, please help to update the documentation in wiki: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide#Define_the_default_fonts_for_the_locale If for example "ta-IN" entry was ignored, and it works with "ta", then we need to review the whole file, because many locales have country codes, while UI localization uses only language code. Should we add entries for locales which are not there? Moreover, I'm not sure if the recently fixed fdo#43984 works at all (it uses zh-cn and zh-hk locale codes).
