Re: Problem in testing translation (gnumeric)

[Janne <jan moren lucs lu se>]

Heh, cyrillic letters - cool!

I am the Swedish translator for Gnumeric, so I have a pretty easy time
to test it.

When starting gnumeric, I get the warning message:

** (gnumeric:9483): WARNING **: Probable mis-translation.
'_????????/????????...' : was not found. Does this match the
'_File/Preferen_ces...' menu exactly ?

When going into File -> Preferences (I had to start a Swedish-language
copy to find it), there are a bunch of "Schema missing" texts for most
items - this is due to my installation of gnumeric (tips on fixing it
would be appreciated). The help texts are in English, however (and are
correctly in Swedish). The font tab is translated.
