I doubt this qualifies as 'critical' bug. Language can be selected from GDM and as such there should be a very simple work around. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/page.cgi?id=fields.html#importance for classification of severities. Yes, i know this shouldn't be as critical, but we have RC2 "behind the door" and this is really big issue and i wouldn't expect such these problems when development cycle is finishing. And i know the language can be selected from gdm, but this worked in Milestones and in RC1. This issue has appeared the first time. As far as I can tell, the default language used by gdm is the default locale for LC_MESSAGE. So that wouldn't be a gdm issue, but something in the X start scripts or in yast that has changed. I can confirm the same issue in RC2. I had to log out and to change language via gdm. Strange was, that language in gdm was English, but keyboard was Slovak. Maybe important remark, i chose installation directly from boot loader menu, not from booted LiveCD by clicking on live installer icon on the desktop. output rpm -q gdm: gdm-2.28.0-2.3.2.i586 output rpm -q --changelog gdm: * Tue Oct 20 2009 vuntz@opensuse.org - Add gdm-look-at-runlevel.patch to work around issue where gdm blocks the restart/shutdown process because of a race there. Should fix bnc#540482. - Version the Provides/Obsoletes to fix a rpmlint warning. - Reorder packageand() arguments for the branding supplements to fix rpmlint warning. * Fri Oct 02 2009 vuntz@opensuse.org - Add gdm-devkit-power.patch: gdm was using a dbus API which doesn't exist anymore, and the right way to handle this is to use DeviceKit-power. - Add DeviceKit-power-devel BuildRequires for the patch. - Add gdm-polkit-gnome-path.patch to use the correct path for the polkit agent. - Rebase gdm-greeter-greater-ui.patch. Fix bnc#533597. Just to be sure, here you are steps to reproduce. 1.In boot loader menu choose your language and Installation. 2.After installation open YaST -> System -> Language and change Primary language, because as primary language is still English. 3.Install all langauge packgages. 4.Restart system. 5.Language is still English. 6.Log out and change language via. Perhaps this issue doesn´t refer to languages contained on LiveCD. Could this be related to bug #547930 ? Created attachment 324754 [details]
attached yast logs
Can you log in a console? What's the default language there? ra100@linux-1u78:~> locale LANG=sk_SK.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_TIME="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_NAME="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="sk_SK.UTF-8" LC_ALL= Under KDE it works properly. After installation all language packages and log out, system uses my native language. I installed RC2, and I see this too. But it's not a GNOME issue: the automatic configuration step with yast was in english too, so that's before anything GNOME-related appears. Also, when logging on a console, the locale is english too for me. This is really bug 550874, as far as I can tell. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 550874 *** |
