Re: Another case of gettext with Gtk2::GladeXML

[Chris Debenham - PTS Engineer <Chris Debenham Sun COM>]

I traced the script and found that it is only looking for joellisme.mo
in:
/usr/share/locale/fr_CA/LC_MESSAGES/joellisme.mo
/usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/joellisme.mo
/usr/share/locale-langpack/fr_CA/LC_MESSAGES/joellisme.mo
/usr/share/locale-langpack/fr/LC_MESSAGES/joellisme.mo

You need to either put the .mo file in one of those places, or find some
way to tell libglade to look in a different directory for the
translation (there may be an environment variable to help here)
