I beg your pardon. I am very much here, though Subhransu has been doing
most of the translations as of late. Which email address did you try to
contact me at? It is possible that the gmohanty cvs gnome org redirect
is broken. I have just sent a test mail to check. Please feel free to
use this address for bug reports.

Huh? I just double-checked, and gcalctool has been updated for gnome
2.12, 2.14, and 2.16. I think I forgot to add a ChangeLog entry for
what was then the HEAD (now, 2.16) branch. Should I do this
retrospectively?

The l10n-status.gnome.org also shows it as 100% translated for 2.14.
There are some 23 fuzzies, and 23 untranslated messages for 2.16, but
not very out of date.

Some comments below on the attached bug report. I have also added these
to the original bug report.

I do not have an installation of gnome 2.16 in order to check this at the
moment, and the attached trace is not very useful because of the lack of
symbols. I just checked with gnome 2.14, and gcalctool works fine, and shows
a properly localised interface under the Oriya locale. I will check this on
2.16, but as I will be out of India till the 11th of October, that can only
be done when I get back.

  One possibility is that the user has an improper Oriya locale installed. There
is one available on the Rebati site, at http://oriya.sarovar.org/download/or_IN.gz
and instructions for installing it are at
http://oriya.sarovar.org/docs/getting_started/node16.html . Unfortunately, this
locale has not been submitted to glibc, as I could not figure out where to do
that.

Do other applications work, and show proper Oriya interfaces under the same Oriya
locale?
