Bug 948723

Please attach Yast logs
There must be a reason for that which is not obvious without logs.

Or at least tell us how exactly to reproduce, thx

I think it something to do with locale or kde system settings format - see next attachment. Otherwise this is straight from the media.

localectl 
   System Locale: LANG=POSIX
                  LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
       VC Keymap: fi
      X11 Layout: fi
       X11 Model: pc105
     X11 Options: terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp

kde system settings

OK, so (info from logs) the installation was performed with these settings:

Language: English
Keyboard: Finnish
Timezone: Europe/Helsinki
Desktop:  KDE

Nothing else that could change it...

Im not sure if this is related that also the time is translated to Finnish:

Do you need something more from me at the moment?

Well, you could try running Yast Qt in GNOME and also text-mode Yast (ncurses)
in Xterm or so. Does it still produce the same result?

Wait, this looks like a libzypp issue, this comes from logs:

y2log:

modules/Misc.rb:189 .sysconfig.language.RC_LANG: 'en_US.UTF-8'
modules/Language.rb:508 language from sysconfig: en_US
modules/Language.rb:440 original language: en_US; setting to lang:en_US
modules/Misc.rb:189 .sysconfig.language.RC_LANG: 'en_US.UTF-8'

and later

modules/PackageLock.rb:146 Pkg Builtin called: Connect
PkgFunctions.cc(zypp_ptr):100 Initializing Zypp library...
[zconfig] ZConfig.cc(_autodetectTextLocale):202 Found LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8
[zconfig] ZConfig.cc(_autodetectTextLocale):209 Default text locale is 'fi_FI'
...
[zconfig] ZConfig.cc(ZConfig):794 zypp.conf: '/etc/zypp/zypp.conf'
[zconfig] ZConfig.cc(ZConfig):794 TextLocale: 'fi_FI' (fi_FI)

Looks like:
Yast runs in en_US
libzypp detects fi_FI

Olli, can you attach your /etc/zypp/zypp.conf please?

zypp derives the default text locale from $LANG, which is 'fi_FI.UTF-8'. 

If yast want's a different language, it must call ZConfig::setTextLocale. If the locale yast requests differs from the current setting, you'll see a log line from  ZConfig.cc telling "Overriding text locale (OLDLANG): NEWLANG"; later a line from PoolImpl.cc "pool_set_languages: NEWLANG and it's fallbacks"

I don't see yast requesting a different locale in the logs...

Just installed Leap and there is same problem.

Olli, could you execute "locale" (not localectl) and paste the output?

~> locale
LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fi_FI.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Ok. Reproduced.

So the point is that you have the LANGUAGE env variable ("translations" section of KDE control panel) forced to en_US and you have the LANG variable ("format" section) set to fi_FI.UTF-8.

To be honest, having the UI in English and the pattern names in Finish is the smallest problem I would expect from having inconsistent LANG and LANGUAGE variables. :-)

Actually, taking into account the meaning of both variables, I'd even say that the result, UI in English with data in Finish, can be considered perfectly correct.

Closing as invalid. Feel free to reopen if you disagree.
