Will this patch obsolete bug 128354? Created attachment 54979 [details]
Patch for gtk 2.8.6 to localize the commonly used font style names.
I only updated the zh_CN and zh_TW po files.
Hope the update for zh_TW is ok :-)
This patch is nothing to do with bug 128354. This patch puts the commonly used English style names into po files, so that they can be localized. Bug 128354 is talking about using localized style names stored in the font files. However I closed bug 128354 as WONTFIX, because of bug 128930 addresses that issue as well. Do you have any update? Is it possible to merge this patch into our gtk2 package? According to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95731#c6 and to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=128930#c17 users of fontconfig don't require changes if they are using a new fontconfig. Is this accurate? Or does GTK+ still need the changes from your patch? I'm confused :) In NLD/SuSE we always use fontconfig under Pango, don't we? 128930 and this bug are not same. 128930 is talking about making use of the localized family and style name STORED in font files. However, most font files don't provide localized style name, so user will only see the latin style name, like Italic, Bold etc., even the patch for 128930 is applied . However, it's not friendly for users. For many non-English users, they even don't know what's the meaning of words Italic and Bold. The patch of this bug addresses this issue by adding localized strings of those commonly used style names into po files, so that those style names will always be localized, no matter whether the fonts provide the localized names or not.
