The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5391 Logged by: Victor Vargas Email address: kamu...@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 8.4 Operating system: Ubuntu Lucid Description: coding issues displaying server messages Details:
This report was originally filed at: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-8.4/+bug/544114 postgresql-8.4 on Lucid has a i18n coding issues when displays server messages. postgresql-8.4 template is fully translated into Spanish in Launchpad: lucid/+ and the translations are included in the /usr/share/locale-langpack/es/LC_MESSAGES/postgresql-8.4.mo. Among others, the error messages about "authentication failed" are fully translated, as you can see here: lucid/+ For example, the string: password authentication failed for user "%s" is translated into Spanish this way: la autentificación password falló para el usuario «%s» However, if I do a mistake during authentication, the server shows the error message in this way: rica...@kadath:~$ psql -U ricardo datos Contraseña para usuario ricardo: psql: FATAL: la autentificaci?n password fall? para el usuario <<ricardo>> Please, note: 1. The ó char is replaced by ?. 2. The « and » chars has been replaced by << and >>. Another example: the string: database "%s" does not exist is translated into Spanish as no existe la base de datos «%s» as you can see here: lucid/+ However, the error message is displayed like this: rica...@kadath:~$ psql -U ricardo datos Contraseña para usuario ricardo: psql: FATAL: no existe la base de datos <<datos>> Again, the « and » chars has been replaced by << and >>. This issue is not psql related, because I tried using pgadmin3 with the same results. This issue can't be reproduced using postgresql-8.3 in Karmic. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
