** Description changed: + Impact: The translations are missing from the package tuxpaint-data, affecting all international users. + Cause: Tuxpaint was built for the Lucid cycle while it was still in main, so its translations were stripped to go to langpacks. + Then it was demoted to universe and never rebuilt, so its translations are missing from the current package in the repos. + Development version fix: The problem has been fixed for Maverick by just rebuilding the package. No source code changes were necessary. + Stable version patch: A simple version bump and a rebuild are needed, no other source or packaging changes are necessary. + TEST CASE: Run tuxpaint under any locale other than English. The translations aren't there so an English environment will still be shown. + + A fixed package for Lucid has been uploaded to https://launchpad.net/~ts.sch.gr/+archive/ppa, has been tested, and found to be working fine. + Only the version number has been changed, so no regressions are expected. + + The original bug report follows: + -- Binary package hint: tuxpaint Running tuxpaint --lang finnish did not show any Finnish messages. The package file downloaded from the Ubuntu repository seems to be missing localization files, since the following command yields no output: ar p /var/cache/apt/archives/tuxpaint-data_1%3a0.9.20-2ubuntu1_all.deb data.tar.gz | tar tzv | grep share/locale I recompiled the tuxpaint source package myself, and the resulting deb file does include localization files: ar p tuxpaint-data_0.9.20-2ubuntu1_all.deb data.tar.gz | tar tzv | grep share/locale drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/ve/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/ve/LC_MESSAGES/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 11332 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/ve/LC_MESSAGES/tuxpaint.mo drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/rw/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/rw/LC_MESSAGES/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 1201 2010-01-06 19:07 ./usr/share/locale/rw/LC_MESSAGES/tuxpaint.mo (etc) Installing thisself-compiled package makes the Finnish messages appear when I run tuxpaint --lang finnish.
