Bugzilla – Bug 116724
Serbian not offered in the list of languages
Last modified: 2005-09-13 12:38:43 UTC
Greetings from the Brainshare exhibition floor, passing bugs from customers and inquisitive coworkers... :) Serbian is not in the list of yast languages for the installation (RC1 DVD9). I have checked yast2-trans-stats-2.11.0-7 (wrong version number, BTW) from the DVD and it says Serbian (sr) has 57% translated. So that is quite low, but surprisingly Romanian is included, even though the stats say 35% only - try it in the language selection dialog, you get mixture with English even there. I don't know the policy regarding the incomplete translations, but could we perhaps have the "lesser" lagnuages hidden behind a details button? I have found an open font bug 95814 but i guess that is not related.
With the advent of the yast2-trans-stats warning mechanism (9.3?) it is possible to enable all languages. For existing languages we do it on request, all new languages are enabled by default. Not sure, whether it is possible to enable 'sr' at that stage of the 10.0 release cycle.
Yes, yast2-trans-stats doesn't affect the presence of language in the language menu - so it is a bug. Andreas, should we add it in RC3? What would I need to do it (from Karl): the locale code (sr_SR/sr_YU ???), translated text of "Serbian" in UTF and ascii (Српски / Srpski ?). Minor issue is the keyboard map to assign for serbian. Problem (minor?): "Serbian" entry in the list of secondary langauges would not be translated to other languages (would remain in english).

bug 95814 is not related, but at least point us to some Serbians for verification :-)
Now I see that we ship also yast2-trans-bs (bosnian), which also is not included in the language list :-(
Please submit a new package asap for this.
Karl, could you confirm these values? "sr_CS": _("Serbian") - "Српски" - "Srpski" , keyboard sr-cy.map.gz "bs_BA": _("Bosnian") - "Bosanski" - "Bosanski", us keyboard
Although I think "Српски" is correct, it looks like we do not use cyrilic in serbian translations (unlike russian and bulgarian). So maybe there should stay "Srpski" for both Qt and ncurses.
Looks good (but I'm not familiar with these languages). Yes, for the moment stay with latin1 .
